It's a good example of AI psychosis I guess, people reading things into a headline which they want to be true, no matter what reality says ;)
When you look at the commit history, the actual changes come down to a few dozen lines of code, all of them absolutely trivial, and most of those code changes seem to be cherry-picked bugfixes from the original project.
More like "wisdom of the crowds" (for better or worse) unless you're trying to argue that everyone who upvotes/downvotes on HN suffers from AI psychosis ;)
You can’t downvote articles, so a relatively small amount of enthusiastic people slamming upvote will do it.
