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.
