For some reason AI seems to bring out articles that seem to fundamentally lack curiosity - opting instead for gleeful mockery and scorn. I like AI, but I'll happily read thoughtful articles from people who disagree. But not this. This article has no value other than to dunk on the opposition.
I tend to think HN's moderation is OK, but I think these sorts of low-curiosity articles need to be off the front page.
I think this is the fundamental trend of all "commentary" in the digital age.
Thoughtful, nuanced takes simply cannot generate the same audience and velocity, and by the time you write something of actual substance the moment is gone and the hyper-narrative has moved on.
