> There's another story on HN posted today about balancing money and meaning and one of the top comments is a sarcastic put-down about the AI generate image at the top of the blog post. If the author had used AI to create the web page they'd almost certainly receive similar praise as the comments on this one. Both AI's are trained on other people's work, yet you seem to think even pointing this out is unfair. Very strange imo

Most of the comments on that submission are negatively and fairly accusing it of being ChatGPT generated: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37779591

That submission also appears to have been flagged/penalized, so yes, people aren't happy with it.

There is a significant difference between using AI for a functional purpose that others can learn from and using AI for low-effort marketing blogspam.

right, the text content was AI generated, and people don't like that. But if any of the tech was AI generated then the author would receive praise.
