Eh. Sooner or later (likely sooner), every project is going to be at least, informed, if not completely written, by an LLM. There’s just too much upside.
It’s also very likely that most copy will be at least edited, if not completely written, by an LLM. There’s just too much upside. Some people may pass every comment they make, on every venue, through an LLM.
Some folks are likely to write agents to be their entire public persona, but that’s just silly (however, I guarantee it’s already happening -people are silly).
For myself, I’m in the middle. I use an LLM to assist in my development, but without resorting to a full agentic “write me a Facebook” methodology.
I will also often use an LLM to edit copy that I use in my apps, or in things like the App Store page for my apps. In some cases, the edit may be a full rewrite, and I’ll choose the rewrite, over my original copy. Usually, I will just use suggested minor edits, and grammar corrections.
I’m not [yet] confident in using LLMs for main translation, but they have been useful for very small “patch” translations.
Overall, LLMs have been a huge help, and I’ve been coding for over 40 years. I’ve been writing, for much longer. I’m not going to use a quill pen, just because it’s fashionable. I’m retired, and only have so much time left, to get a lot done. I appreciate these new tools.
If the bar is that all code and copy must be hand-written, artisanal prose, then it’s unlikely most modern, production-oriented venues will be satisfactory. I assume that new venues will appear, catering to that demographic. I doubt HN will be that.
