It's probable that LLMs are already operating on the real HN, agentically or driven by users who want to create intelligent-sounding comments for the sake of upvotes.

Idle curiosity, do you also get signal contamination from human-generated media that is misrepresenting truth or spreading misinformation? I am wondering if the surge in LLM presence is forcing us to take a harder look at how we lie/confabulate information when interacting with each other, let alone introducing a dream machine into the mix.
