Ask HN: Do you care if an article was AI generated if it was valuable?

1•AznHisoka•2h ago
Do you care if an article/social media post was AI generated if it was valuable to you? For instance, if you actually learned something insightful .

Or do you immediately just stop reading if you even sense it was AI generated?

If it is accurate and valuable, I don't care who wrote it.

AFAICT, AIrticles are more rambling and verbose than well written articles. Technical articles need to be concise and (surprise) highly accurate, meaning checked.

Other articles need to be, as I've said of books, they are good because they (their chapters) are coherent, consistent and complete. Concise helps a lot.

This requires an understanding of narrative: envisioning the goal, how pieces build towards it, attention to detail, and importantly, understanding how humans process information to create understanding and meaning.

It takes one to know one.

If it's clearly disclosed that it's AI generated, I think that's fair. If it's posted with the implication that the author actually wrote it, no I'm not interested.

When I realize or even suspect it’s AI generated, I hit the back button one second later.

If someone doesn’t think it’s worth their time to write it, it’s definitely not worth my time to read it.
