Ask HN: What do you do with LLM articles?

2•sirnicolaz•1h ago
I don't want to make a rant about articles written entirely or partially with the aid of LLMs. I do myself sometimes resort to that type of help if I get stuck. I just would like to know your feelings when, at some point through the reading, you realize that what you have in front has not been written by a person. The signs are by now pretty clear and at least my brain clicks as soon as that happens (I usually confirm it with an LLM detector). Emotionally, I feel a profound sense of frustration (I like the notes and imperfections that different humans bring to a perspective). Rationally, I fear that the more of this I read, the more damage I might do to my brain. Imagine reading books only from 1 author. And that author is only interested in their book sales. Maybe I am overthinking it?

I normally only find such articles on Hacker News. If it just sort of smells like AI slop but I can't quite pinpoint the source of the smell, I stop reading and move on. If it's very clearly written by AI (as many are), I flag the article and move on.

Without any kind of training in psychology, I'm pretty sure occasionally and unintentionally consuming AI slop isn't going to damage brains. However, I definitely believe that forming a dependence on AI could harm cognitive ability, though probably not permanently.
