Yes, I've been flagging a fair amount of them too.
Although generally I think the un-nuanced AI hype/doom articles are not nearly as damaging as the flood of one-shot LLM projects being presented under "Show HN" with apparently none of the framing text (HN post, project README, responses to feedback) being human-written.
I think Show HN was due an overhaul even before vibecoding jammed it up, but I agree that's an issue too.
I'm happy to hear your ideas about this, including off-site (I could email you if you like) if you don't want to go further off topic here.
This thread isn't a great place for it, but I think we should formalize Show HN a bit (don't let people post freeform "Show HN" posts, have a submission queue) and then I have a lot of thoughts about community-based coaching.
