It's certainly a choice to make your headline feature a new ONNX engine, feature a bunch of comparisons how it's better than ONNXRuntime, while casually mentioning on the side that the cool new much faster engine is CPU-only

Sure, running models on the CPU is very much a thing in computer vision (the benchmarked YOLOv8n has 37M params). But this whole announcement feels more like OpenCV catching up to the modern world, not "The Biggest Leap in Years for Computer Vision"

Still great, needing fewer libraries is a good thing, but maybe a bit oversold

The release post is AI-written with little human oversight and it shows.

I had to stop reading after: "This is not just another incremental release. OpenCV 5 is a major step forward."

If a human can't be bothered to write a piece, I can't be bothered to read it.

		The endless deluge of AI prose really wears on the soul once you start noticing it.

		i initially adopted this line of thinking. after exposure to arguably valid cases like translated articles, it now seems to me that the most efficient path forward (after first noting AI prose) is to scan past all language and evaluate whether or not useful content is encoded within. theres no benefit to anyone (except those benefitting from societal atrophy) in wasting brain cycles on unnecessary verbosity, however blanket rejection necessarily involves loss of valuable information.

This is what I hate about AI. Not that people use it, it's great to accelerate specific workflows, make less mistakes etc. It's just blindly trusting it and just saying "Make a post about a CV library release, make no mistakes" and calling it a day.

Where is the human creativity in writing release notes gone?
