Reflexively then, good comments are good, no matter what produced them. Or is a quality comment impugned by knowing it came from an LLM? Does it cheapen what it means to be human if other humans think highly of an LLMs attempts at English? Is it at all impressive that ChatGPT is able to spell words correctly, given that it's a computer? What does that mean for the spelling bee industry?
Since LLM's work mostly with text, I see how a downgrade in the interaction medium can become a downgrade in the information outputs.
The thing is, lets hope the current web doesn't totally disappears/obliterates.
HN will still be HN LLM's or not, shitty comments are shitty however they get produced.
