Re:Every AI model has the same "controversial" take on humans on Thursday October 22, 2026 @06:27PM (#50201967)
I would even say it's the opinion we have about others not ourselves. As most prose condemns 'the herd'.

Man those quotes are so clearly AI slop as well. Surface sounds interesting but there is no critical thought behind it.
Like the cookies from Black Mirror.

That should tell you something about how much effort (thinking) is required for the activity. The fact you writing is t something you can do as much as reading means you use your brain a bit more. I would claim that consuming information always uses less thought then generating information. For a human brain at least.

Easier said than done, no asset producing income will do so indefinitely without a lot work/investments.
I don't think you can look at the current AI landscape and say any aspect of it is undersold.

Hey, you need to make your code examples horizontal scrollable on mobile! I could still guess their content based on context clues but still.
Re:Allow me to get to know you, mistakes and all on Sunday March 15, 2026 @03:39AM (#47385143)
You're the first articulating my exact use case with AI as well! It really helps get me in 'the zone'. I actually now dictate as well and then the AI rewrite it and then I start editing. To lower the barrier even more.

Small correction: it's actually the toggle 'Choice between male and female candidates'

Would you mind sharing some info on how you found a tech job in Norway? I'm from another European country and looking for some first-hand knowledge on working in / moving to Norway.

What is going on with the quality of the comments on HN? I could have never predicted these comments here 10 years ago.

One means (used to mean?) actually checking the LLM's output one means keep trying until it outputs does what you want.

That makes sense

I mean. How can it be scary when you have git reflog.
Curious, what phone would you recommend/do you use?

Or seek out specific entertainment.

I resonate with your message entirely. Have you been able to find a company/position where you are able to satisfy this drive?

It's crazy how this is almost perfectly readable as a Dutch person.
>you have unleashed on this world a toy more addictive than a cocaine enema.

No offense to you meant, but I wonder in general where the need for this kind of hyperbolic phrasing comes from. As it seems to be everywhere on the internet.

And the related XKCD https://www.xkcd.com/599/
Genuinely curious to your age, as I'm suspecting some recency bias? As Bob Ross certainly was well known throughout Europe way before the 2010s.
Looking at your site. I think the big disclaimer around the site not being for mobile is more off-putting then then the actual UI. Especially as a landing page it is fine. Maybe put that disclaimer later on ?
It is definitely the right place!
How did you verify it worked?
Without any offense to you, the creator of this app. It's obvious a lot of care went into it and you wanted to create a better product than what is out there. Even considering the mental impact such ranking could have.

However, I genuinely feel that the need for this app is what's wrong with society.

Re:OK, I can partly explain the LLM chess weirdness now on Friday November 22, 2024 @02:45AM (#42211908)
IMO this is clearly implicit in the "you are a grandmaster chess player" prompt. As that should make generating best possible move tokens more likely.
