What's the HN policy on LLM-generated comments and linked content? There's so much of it on the front page and in threads that I feel increasingly like I'm in a crowd of machines chasing karma points rather than seeing what people think or care about. Is the engagement also botted? Or can people just not tell? Or do they not care and reply to the obvious robot anyway?
Downvote it, flag it and if you want to be super-helpful, email us about it ([email protected]).
We want HN to be free of generated articles and comments, and will kill such submissions/comments and ban accounts that do it repeatedly.
We also ask commenters not to make accusations in the discussion threads, because it's off topic. Please just flag generated content and email us if you really want to.
