You could have easily disproved my claim by linking your comments with a more balanced or nuanced opinions on the matter, except you cannot, because there is only even more outlandish and wild stuff you say about AI and LLMs.

It‘s perfectly ok to share opinions that aren’t nuanced or balanced. You seem to have something strongly against that specific user, the fact that you felt the need to go through so much of their history, post a massive list of their „suspicious“ comments, and mention in multiple places how they are a shill is pretty concerning imho and doesn’t make you look good at all. Their activity looks fine, they seem to be enthusiastic and optimistic about the technology, but that’s pretty much it.

And now you’re asking them to somehow disprove they aren’t a shill? How would that even work. You seem unnecessarily antagonistic towards that user

  • It is not just me who finds solenoid0937 account suspicious: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48252297), ostensibly working at a FAANG, spend all their days spreading unfounded AI-hype in a degrading manner on HN and defending Anthropic? Given the vested financial interest in the technology, the most plausible answer here is that they are paid to do so.

Every time I've tried to engage you in debate you just call me a shill so there's no point. Love ya too though!

  • I have explicitly stated more than once, beforehand, what would have given you a benefit of doubt from my perspective. Even after reading all that you opted for answer evasion, rather than providing any substance, as you do with all the questions addressed to you. I do understand why you had to do it here though, because the claims regarding AI and LLM you have made before are even more outlandish than what has been posted over the last 10 days and similarly without a single shred of proof.

    • I find it so funny that claims like this are so outlandish to you that it makes you think I'm a shill:

      > Unfortunately, instead they have claimed recently that they went completely full-on with agentic coding skipping reviews and pushing to prod directly at a FAANG, no less.

      This is like the most normal thing in my org, lmao. The fact that this aggravates you so much, is proof to me that many people/industries are way behind the curve on agents. Still bullish!

      > as someone who is actually using LLMs in their work,

      You should consider that your way of using LLMs is not the only correct way, and may in fact be severely limited, unimaginative, and/or close-minded.
