I think it depends on the purpose of the comment. I can see why someone may get frustrated with AI text if they were say looking for advice on xyz, as you'd usually want someone with personal or senior experience. If I want career advice, AI will give me a predictable response similar to LinkedIn, but something from a successful person in the industry will have a lot more trust and substance in it.
I know it's an unpopular opinion, but I don't really read too deeply into whether text is AI generated or not. On social platforms like HN I tend to just skim many comments anyway so it's not like the concept of "they spent no time writing so you shouldn't spend time reading" really applies.
I know some people use apps like Grammarly to improve their language and stuff, which I can respect. But at what point do we draw the line between AI assisted text and AI generated text?
I sometimes use AI to do research into the nuance of some topics to help me formulate a response and synthesize ideas, but if I ever get to the point where I'd be asking AI generate a response to the comment then I find it better to just not respond at all.
