There has been a sharp rise in comments that have all the signs of LLM generated output. Some times I’ll check their post history and see the same thing over and over again, at which point I’ll flag it. I don’t guess based on a single comment alone.
Most recently there was a guy obviously using ChatGPT to generate comments under topics with the usual signs (em dashes, unnecessary bullet point lists, “it’s not this, it’s that” construction on every line) who would finish the comments with a plug for his project.
LLM generated advertisement comments. The scariest part was how his comments were all getting upvoted so much.
Now all of the comments from that account are dead, but it went on for a long time without many people noticing
Can I get you to whitelist my account? I use emdashes a LOT, but I'm very human.
And how do we know you won't go and rent out your account to some AI once it's been white-listed (≖_≖ )
Can I get to whitelist my account too. Using the quote again but:
"I may have vibe coded 300 lines of code (this project) but I can bet on my life that all the words (200_000+ for me) are written by myself literally behind a keyboard (Hi! :D)"
To be honest, another minor thing but when I made this. I had added a cat video & I am only human after all song.
Now this post has 183 comments right now. I am still waiting for someone to tell me if they found the cat video funny and what was the funniest point within the video :D
Going to eat dinner while I watch I am only human after all because the song is really great. I suggest real people if they ever get accused of being AI to simply paste the music video link of "I am only human after all, don't put the blame on me"
(On a more serious note: I have been called AI for some reason, I usually flip out really hard because I have written the words myself and now you call me AI? That flips me off because I am really open about when I use AI and when I don't (which I never use AI in hackernews posts. Literally written by me) So it pisses me off so much when people call (atleast mine) comments AI. Maybe its the distrust with the community regarding there being AI posts, I get that but it still pisses me off because I genuinely don't know how to respond to someone peacefully if someone calls me AI because I feel as if they might still call me AI if I talk too peacefully (Like I usually try to))
