> LLM prose is genuinely unpleasant to read

What exact parts from the submission are "genuinely unpleasant to read" right now? Highlighting those could make it better rather than just filling HN with "LLM texts is boring to read".

> Sometimes it feels like someone asking you to read an article with no punctuation or grammar

Ok, but is that actually the problem here, or why are you adding more general complaints instead of focusing on the actual submission article?

If you don't like it, don't read it, don't contribute to the discussion, I don't understand this obsession with "must let others know I don't like LLM writing, although I'm not 100% sure this submission actually suffers from the issues I don't like with LLM writing".

I mean, I got about half way through before going blah. But it is a fun looking project and it is great that they are pushing for an open platform.

I like to read, but some writing is more enjoyable than others. If you want to contribute to their wiki, you can do so.

I mean, you posted a comment and started a discussion about "LLM complaints on HN", so I replied to that. I didn't comment about the article itself.

Part of my point is that the line between "written by an LLM" and "written for marketing" is so blurred that you can't always tell anyways.
