why would we care about the intentions or the tooling used for the HN post (or the project for that matter)? if they had used an English dictionary would we have a problem with this? I think we should judge these "Show HN" on their value like utility or novelty. Of course people posting their project to HN want advertising/free marketing.

I agree if this was one of those empty blog posts; if the whole post is an article generated by an LLM, by all means downvote.

Grammar-Karen (21st equivalent of grammar-Nazi)? Simply because of chatgpt involvement doesn't deemed it not worthy of human intellect consumption. This post is way better than call centers response manuals even if it is 100% chatgpt generated. Robocalls and call centers scripts are written by humans and I doubt you can find anyone appreciate their literacy intellect value other than maybe those interested in that kind of business developments of their own.
