alt Hacker NewsHave you actually read the article? They point out multiple times that they like the Waymo ride and would use one again and loved it. It's not a Waymo-bashing article, it cautions against the long term effects on research.
And here you have it — I used an LLM-ism. Oh, and now another one! Time to downvote me for supposed LLM use! (Which I obviously didn't, I'm typing this on an ancient smartphone waiting for a train, but that doesn't deter the witch hunters.)

Calling it "witch hunting" is just dishonest. That term implies a baseless overreaction to a heavily exaggerated or imagined threat.
That's hardly what's going on here. Unlike witches, AI slop really is everywhere and it's pretty clear that this article is slop.
I find complaining about AI callouts to be itself deeply distasteful although it would take some thought to put my finger on the exact reasons why.
You actually didn't. The construct is slightly different.
I use LLMs all day every day. I think they're great. I just don't like humans who put their name to what an LLM did.
