HN's algorithm is weird. Why is this LLM slop article from over two hours ago, with only 3 votes in that time, halfway up the front page? It is honestly incredible how good LLMs are at achieving the most infuriating writing pattern imaginable. It's like every sentence is a clickbait headline, begging for your emotional attention. Packaged with a catchy headline, yet devoid of any actually meaningful content. This is an impressive amount of words to say "don't store every single byte of the program's running memory in your replay system", which is self-evident to anyone who might think about it for two seconds. Expanding that into a 2300 word treatise is a feat in its own right.

It's not just random internet noise. It's generative AI.
This is not low-quality digital output. This is value-driven generative AI.
Not automated. Generative.
I love the hum of ozone in the morning.
