it goes without saying that none of the hackermen point out that if it were as simple as applying a CV model to the generated output, the company generating the output would already be doing it (and I’ve given up on the idea that a hacker news poster could begin to analyze why that is). however:
this feels like a con to me, or at least an indicator that these folks have no idea what they want to do. a post with that kind of tone would most likely get flagged dead by the mods, though, so the orange site remains a target-rich environment if you’re looking for folk who might invest in your scam/bad idea
there actually is a comment making this point now:
the reply is a work of art:
it’s not even wrong, as they say
wh-what? I — there’s just so much wrong. is this the maximum information density of wrongness? the shortest string that encodes the most incorrect information? have these absolute motherfuckers just invented and then solved inverse Kolmogorov complexity?
that sounds like an oversimplification that was further oversimplified by at least two editors
They used an LLM.
interestingly the replies have the same kind of tone that you often see in cryptographic kookery, so that’s another strong warning signal
