I'd love to see dang's take on this. How to prevent HN getting overrun with AI topics? How to avoid slop killing the mood? In terms of articles, in terms of comments?

Is there any estimate of how many comments are LLM-generated? What if I tell an agent "make an HN account and post comments with the goal of maximizing karma" and come back after a week to see how it went?

Intentionally not upvoting this post since it is AI related.

OK, I’ve done my bit.
