I don’t see why it’s AI, but even if it is, it’s better than most human comments so the complaint should be downvoted.

Take a look at the user's history, it's more obvious in context. It has a lot of claude-specific tells which are noticeable if you've spent time working with claude. AI-generated comments are against the HN guidelines https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html#generated
phrenology
SamTinnerholm started to consistently use emdash in their comments starting 11 days ago, before that none of their comments used emdash.
LLMs like emdash very much, humans don't use it very much these days.
if you're not able to tell that OP's comment was AI slop, then you probably don't have much insight to contribute to the conversation either.

Maybe the guidelines should be changed? Something about: don’t complain about comments just because they’re AI.
I'm not complaining "just" because it's AI.
I'm complaining because it's AI, and also slop.
> resolves into "cross-venue infrastructure" — which is also a more durable edge than within-venue alpha
anybody who actually trades knows that on these markets, "cross venue infrastructure" (aka vibe coding some exchange api integrations) is much less important / durable than actual alpha.

no fuck that. We should definitely complain about AI written content, and we should ban anyone who wants to keep people ignorant of time wasting bs comments.
As a side note, the AI popularized usage of the word 'clean' to denote proper is physically revolting to me.
Yes, just like the "don't say HN is becoming reddit" rule. If you think it's AI downvote or flag and move on, reading "this is AI" over and over all over the internet without any substantiation is tiresome.
it's only "better than human comments" if you have no idea what profitable trading looks like. it's a very-very thin mildly convincing veneer over what is fundamentally slop.
