"Normal people" probably does not fall in the ballpark of HN target audience.

I'd say its 50/50 pessimistic and optimistic, with pessimistic attracting more attention because of human nature.

There was definitively an pre prompt fed to that. I cannot reproduce this result on either 3.1 flash or 3.5 flash.
Why would you use an LLM for this? They are non deterministic models.

This is also an probably part of extended prompt that disallowed coding, Gemini always does calculation with a little python snippet because it is deterministic and accurate.

I think this is a move by openai/google to prevent their own models from training on ai slop rather than some morally righteous public initiative.
