Yes, we're looking for some other human sharing something interesting. There is no requirement to put things out into the world. So when somebody shares something to a discussion board like HN the hope is that if I'm going to spend my time reading it, they spent the time to write it. If I wanted to read an AI response I could just ask it "Tell me about how you could organize an entire business in a monorepo".
Or honesty about the author. If it's written by ChatGPT, say that. If I start to read an article with the expectation of it being written by a human, then see something like this, I instantly check out.
> Last week, I updated our pricing limits. One JSON file. The backend started enforcing the new caps, the frontend displayed them correctly, the marketing site showed them on the pricing page, and our docs reflected the change—all from a single commit.
If you ask an AI that question, it would tell you all the ways this is a bad idea, which isn't in this article (which is one of the reasons I think this wasn't written by AI, but just formatted by it)
Human articles on HN are largely shit. I would personally prefer to see either AI articles, or human articles by experts (which we get almost none of on HN)
