Hacker News Reader

As the top comment on this post (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13965043) demonstrates, the title is misleading at best, and I do not believe you want to intentionally mislead your readers. Rhetorical smiley faces do not change that.

Keep in mind that clickbait titles do get penalized on Hacker News, as dang notes.

I didn't even post it on HN, you guys aren't my target as I explained.

I'm trying to make business execs more eager to experiment ML in their companies, and less afraid about the years of R&D and skynet scenarios they currently relate AI to.

The title was an hyperbole? Yes, but it worked in getting the attention of my target audience. Anyone trying to work as an ML engineer knows that what I did is simple and far from being worth $500M, but should still thank me for spreading awareness on the potential of this technology among who's still scared.
