I would rather read succinct English written by a non-native speaker filled with broken grammar than overly verbose but well-spelled AI slop. Heck, just share the prompt itself!

If you can't be bothered to have a human write literally a handful of lines of text, what else can't you be bothered to do? Why should I trust that your CVE even exists at all - let alone is indeed "critical" and worth ruining Christmas over?

I prefer reading the LLM output for accessibility reasons.

More importantly though, the sheer amount of this complaint on HN has become a great reason not to show up.

You wouldn't complain as much if it were merely poorly written by a human. It gets the information across. The novelty of complaining about a new style of bad writing is being overdone by a lot of people, particularly on HN.
