>NERD is what source code becomes when humans stop pretending they need to write it.

It is so annoying to realise mid read that a piece of text was written by an LLM.

It’s the same feeling as bothering to answer a call to hear a spam recording.

I don't know how you can be so sure about that sentence being written by LLM. I can imagine it is perfectly possible that a human could've written that. I mean, on some day I might write a sentence just like that.

I think HN should really ban complaints about LLM written text. It is annoying at best and a discouraging insinuation at worst. The insinuation is really offensive when the insinuation is false and the author in fact wrote the sentence with their own brain.

I don't know if this sentence was written by LLM or not but people will definitely use LLMs to revise and refine posts. No amount of complaining will stop this. It is the new reality. It's a trend that will only continue to grow. These incessant complaints about LLM-written text don't help and they make the comment threads really boring. HN should really introduce a rule to ban such complaints just like it bans complaints about tangential annoyances like article or website formats, name collisions, or back-button breakage

Using an LLM to generate a post with the implication it is the author's own thoughts is the quintessential definition of intellectual laziness.

One might as well argue that plagiarism is perfectly fine when writing a paper in school.

You are talking about an entirely different situation that I purposely avoided in my comment.

By that logic, if I hand a s/w engineering team a PostIt note saying "add feature X", then all they are doing is "revise and refine" the solution I made, not generating a solution.

Gotcha.
