Every Show HN should come with an AI disclosure detailing exactly how much AI was used to create it. It's not that using AI is bad per se, but I don't want to be a human critiquing an AI's work, it's hard to respond if I don't know who/what built it.

Every Show HN should come with a disclosure detailing exactly how much compiler was used to create it.

I mean it's not that using compilers is bad, it's just that those who use them aren't real coders.

It’s funny… my initial reaction to your comment was that it’s a bit persnickety to expect that. However, I’m coming around to agreeing. I recently spent a non-trivial amount of time responding to a PR into one of my projects. I did have a sense it was mostly AI, but the changes were reasonable with a bit of adjustment. Wrote some feedback and guidance for the first time contributor and bam, they closed the PR, haven’t heard back.

Nobody said anything about “real coders”.

But yes, people generally do not review and comment on compiled code. If your source is written by AI, why is it a surprise people might be hesitant to spend their time reviewing what it produced?
