Only because so many of the articles posted on HN now are AI-written, and badly, too. A lot of tech people are so impressed with LLMs’ capabilities in code that they fail to recognize how bad they are at writing enjoyable prose. And it feels like a chore to write out a whole blog post by hand when the machine could do it for you! But the result we get is so, so much worse and more annoying.
