Yes, repost

I don't mind the dupe's but it makes sense to merge the discussions. Same for Bradbury.

I tried flagging my own comment but it seems one cannot. So flag away to draw attention.

These days every post is getting the AI writing treatment :-(

I was like “how can you tell?” And then I read the article.

I realize for folks that need to write release notes that it’s not fun, and it’s hard to write well, but using AI to do it just makes it worse.

I really don't get why there isn't more work put into making LLM generated prose less bad. Or is it just not possible?

'Release note' as a genre shouldn't be too hard to train? Especially when there are already a plethora of release notes of the same project.

Contrast with the Dolphin emulator release blogs. I swear I’ve spent more timing reading those releases than actually using the software

It’s strangely judgmental too.

> We have a video encoder and muxer for the Playdate, the little yellow console with a crank. It produces 1-bit, 400×240 video using delta coding and zlib compression. It is not important, but it is cool.
