As of 1763032813 the current GPT5.1 has amassed a significant amount of comments to be considered low volume. Sadly I only see my suspicions being confirmed but yeah I'll play along with the HN is the best corner of the Internet narrative.
I believe GP meant low volume in the context of # of submissions, not comments.
However, on that note, as of writing this, the GPT 5.1 submission on the front page has 471 comments. The submission about pennies no longer being minted has 853.
Yes, thank you. The number of submissions where looking through it results in someone talking about how great/horrible AI is. Not the number of times someone continues to bring up and discuss AI in the same submission.
I don't know if it's my job to define what discussion topics define the best corner of the internet, but I'm glad anyways you're willing to play along and reduce the number of times AI is brought into the comments!
Yeah you can count on my reticence, everything seem to be going back to normal.
Oh wait what is that?!

Another low volume slop news day! Maybe I'm more influential than I previously thought..
Well, I can count on you being reserved only once you do accept sending me more links about how other people talk about AI only continues your half. If everyone makes noise about how the other side hasn't quieted down yet so they won't the only outcome is it gets ever louder, as this never ending comment chain about AI has already proven.
