this one over here officer

Hah, you took the bait.

What I could just do is obfuscate it a little bit and you can't tell whether it is AI-generated or not. If I just read that AI-generated snippet, and wrote a "human" version of it, would that still count as "AI-generated"

The idea of that rule is that we don't want HN to be Moltbook, not that it actually wanted to ban AI-comments.
