Favourite genres of posts on HN in the past 2 years:

* “I am bullish about AI”

* “I am an AI skeptic, [long rambling], but overall, I am bullish about AI”

It’s amazing how even criticism of the technology somehow ends up being a hype post. At least there are still places on the Internet where we can have a serious discussion about the downsides.

See dang’s comments on https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47340079 . (That link itself is a submission about HN’s recent guidelines changes to include “Don't post generated comments or AI-edited comments. HN is for conversation between humans.”)

I've been hiding them all. Makes the front page look a lot better.
