Hacker News Reader

This reads a little bit like AI. Particularly the sentence flow of the final few lines.

Because that’s what it is.

We ought to refuse to address the content of the message if there is even a single em-dash — things written with AI can’t be true, aren’t worth considering, and lack substance or merit.

Either have opinions or don't, but don't delegate opinions to chat bots. It defeats the purpose of discussion forums. Also slop is only partially due to the model. The rest is the prompt and editing process. It's tiresome to read to ChatGPT-specific bombastic drama like "The 30-day limit isn't a constraint. It's a demonstration period."

You think I delegated the opinion or the seriousness of this situation to the chatbot?

This is not just a run-of-the-mill news story. It's a fight for the rights enshrined in our constitution.

(And yes - I framed that the way a chatbot might to emphasize the point.)

You're going to have a hard time convincing me this is "overly dramatic" given the context.
