alt Hacker NewsAsk the LLM for information about your topic of choice along with supporting citations. Skim the cited publications to make sure that they exist and actually support the information produced by the LLM. Assuming that the citations pass your checks, post links to them here along with excerpts.
Human-verified information from credible publications is a good thing to share here, whether you originally came across the information from books, search engines, or LLMs. Sharing LLM output by itself is discouraged here.
Asking for supporting citations is a good LLM technique I was not aware of. Appreciate the tip!
And of course the process you're describing would result in a much better post, after much more work.
That said, those are good standards for scientific journals. To me, discussion posts in a hacker forum has a much lower bar, and I think I fulfilled my civic duties by saying it came from an AI.
I'll probably avoid it in the future though.
