That is not it. Everyone who copy pastes output from an LLM gets downvoted (and likely flagged). Even though I simply went with your method, I got down-voted too, when down-voting the parent comment (yours) would have sufficed. Oh well.

Don't take it too personally.

The anti-LLM activists that patrol HN will often downvote comments just for stating facts that disagree with their hatred of LLMs.

You are being downvoted because pasting AI output with no attempt at fact-checking is not bringing any real value to the discussion.
