This is so cool. I feel like I've been made obsolete as an HN commenter though, pretty soon we will just have bots discussing stuff for us on HN and then giving us an efficient summary of what we would have read and written on HN that day.
It's already here, just download OpenAI's AI browser and tell it to do it for you and then go back in the yard and just lay down to die because if even that tiny bit of joy I get from posting here is better done by a fucking robot, what point is there to life anymore.
We might be able to derive happiness from our influence on and accumulated knowledge from HN rather than the amount of time we spend on site. Everyone using bots for this would be...interesting, not necessarily pointless. Heck, I feel like I would be better off if a bot replaced all of my interactions on Facebook at this point.
