replyI dunno, I agree. It sounds conspiratorial.
replyBut who knows, maybe even 17 year old accounts are being hijacked by AI now too.
People do conspire you know.
reply> again with the conspiracy theories
replyYeah, right? Not one ever actually turned out to be true!
That conspiracy about billionaires, who supposedly own all of western media, having deliberately created an environment in which anyone who expresses even the remote idea of a conspiracy, gets discreditted, is also not true!
None of them are true!
Not. A. Single. One.

Would be interesting to see "fastest growing accounts in last N months" or something similar. I'm guessing the ones that are actually humans would be closer to the top than the bottom, but maybe HN users aren't better than the average person to detect AI or not.
replyI did on my old account, but dang just banned it because I said my older accounts got banned for opposing AI.
