Bad feedback loops. It's hard to tell with such a massive report if the numbers are real or bad data.

The worst part is how big AI generated reports are - so much time spent in total having to read fluff.

Generalisations and angry language but I almost agree with the underlying message.

New tools, turbulent methods of execution. There's definitely something here in the way of how coding will be done in future but this is still bleeding edge and many people will get nicked.

LLM feedback loops are scary because they self-reinforce by training over their own data drift and vulnerable people interface with the noise and follow the downward spiral.

Ask HN: Agents.md vs. Contextual Documentation

razodactyl — Sat, 28 Mar 2026 02:25:15 +0000

Hi HN.

Usually it's a project submission that kicks off discussion but in this instance it's more of a vibe check:

When writing code with LLM's we're going in the direction of orchestration at the level of injected context but I feel like we should focus on the content of the code / commentary itself such as docstrings e.g, "AGENTS: This file does X, remember not to Y and look at Z if you need clarification"

This brings it back to contextual specifics and if we move towards this paradigm we can expect models and harnesses to optimise closer to accuracy instead of generality.

Thoughts?

Crazy does and crazy do. Be vigilant and try not to set these people off. There's no rhyme or reason, some people are just faulty in the head.

It's not that it's slop; it's that the important message itself is drowned out by the excessive prose.

It's so exhausting to read AI generated comments, that's why it's so easy to spot them ffs.

@dang - HN tearing itself apart over use of AI isn't conducive to a strong cohesive community.

Nobody here is at fault, we're in very trying times - we need to adjust with patience and consideration.

Use of AI to launch rapid prototypes is like breadboarding a new product. It has a place but it's moving so fast that it's hard to lock down at the moment.

No point everyone throwing excess cortisol in this direction. <3

Humans are better than AI at flagging AI and where they fail is where the content doesn't cause a "disgust" signal - so wouldn't it be useful instead to have a flag as AI feature?

Yeah. If it were a thing it would have happened by now. The friction to lock users down would be very bad for business.

Remember that OpenAI ran statistics on ChatGPT conversations and found development related conversations were in the low 10s https://openai.com/index/how-people-are-using-chatgpt/ - the people who enjoy rolling everything these days is representative of our echo-chamber.

New comment by razodactyl in "OpenClaw is what Apple intelligence should have been"

razodactyl — Thu, 05 Feb 2026 03:05:32 +0000

My opinion is it seems counter to what made Apple so successful in the first place: second mover advantage, see where everyone else fails and plug the gap.

You're right on the liability front - Apple still won because everyone bought their hardware and their margins are insanely good. It's not that they're sitting by waiting to become irrelevant, they're playing the long game as they always do.
