On top of that, AI posts aren't even a majority of submissions by a long shot, at least not those that actually float to the front page...

EDIT: I spot checked /newest. 4 of the 30 submissions are AI related and one of those four is more business (about AWS' new AI focused accelerator) than actually about the technology itself. Another is a Wired article about the ethics of AI research. One is a new tool that incorporates AI. And one is a poll. Point being of the AI submissions, there's clear diversity of content.

from the submissions that get at least 50 points, 15 out of the last 100 were AI related.
Or, between 4 and 5 of 30 on the front page, which is consistent with the state of the front page when I checked earlier. So AI submissions are not being upvoted more or less frequently than other topics, but they do account for about 15 percent of submissions based on super spotty data.
