That was very different. Somehow the entire front page was Erlang, but it was only for a day or 2. AI is different from that. It's like a good 40-50% of the posts for at least a year or more, and I don't see it going away anytime soon. It's also different from web3/etc. as those were at most 10% of the posts and most of us can see it's just hype.
I'm not fighting for a split/fork, just stating the fact that it's nothing compared to Erlang.
IIRC that was a deliberate campaign to make the site unattractive to a spate of non-technical folks who had apparently all simultaneously discovered it.

This is a great little anthropology work of you. Thanks for taking time to find this out!

lol ask a community of autists for more posts about the innards of Erlang, don't be surprised when you get posts about the innards of Erlang.
