Haha good catch! I’m 19 and from Korea, so I’ve been using an LLM to help with replies since my English isn’t perfect yet. But I designed and built the project myself (with help from some open models/tools) — just wanted to communicate more clearly with the community!

[Hi from Argentina!] LLM have a particular style that will make people suspictious or even angry.

One posibility is to write the answer in Korean and use autotranslation. (And post only the autotranslation.) Double check the technical terms, because autotranslation sometimes choose the wrong synonym.

Another posibility is to write the answer in English inside gmail, and gmail will highlight orthographical and gramar errors. So you can fix them.

Most people here will tolerate a few mistakes if the answer has your own personal style.

(Nice project, by the way.)

Yes, writing that is suspictious makes me angry.

>> suspitious

:( My phone does not have orthography correction, and I didn't have my notebook.

Edit: fixed typo: gave -> have

Por esa misma razón, un LLM te habría funcionado perfectamente: desplegando tus pensamientos tal como querías, pero sin las distracciones causadas por la mala ortografía o los errores gramaticales. Los LLM son herramientas —como bien sabes— que ya son esenciales y lo serán aún más con el paso del tiempo. Que algunos en esta plataforma se irriten por su uso solo significa que, eventualmente, se convertirán en los dinosaurios del futuro.

For that very reason, an LLM would have worked perfectly for you: laying out your thoughts just as you intended, but without the distractions caused by poor spelling or grammatical mistakes. LLMs are tools—as you well know—that are already essential and will become even more so over time. The fact that some people on this platform get irritated by their use just means they’ll eventually become the dinosaurs of the future.

This reads as es-es (perhaps es-es-corporate) instead of es-ar. I don't like "desplegando" because it's somewhat closer to "unfolding" instead of "laying out". I'm not sure it's incorrect, but I'd have chosen differently.

The problem is that I read the emails from my friends using their voice and speaking style.

I'd do the same with HN comments, but I never heard most (any?) of them. Anyway, each commenter has a personal style, or at least I have an informal list in my head of a few hundreds commenters. I remember someone made a few good comments about some topic, so it adds in my mind weight to their opinion. I remember some details of their lives, like where they live, family, work, unusual past events, which topics they are interested, ..., they are persons!

With too much AI, comments get bland. They all read like the same corporate speak. AI would not add pasta recipes to antirez comments, or yadayada to patio11 comments. Also, the topics I'd trust their opinions are very different.

I don't mind using AI to fix the text. Moreover, in one of my previous comments I recomendad to write it in Gmail. I guess Gmail is using a mix of an expert system and modern AI. I hope someday Google adds that feature to the textbox in Chrome.

The problem is that some people is using AI to write short "somewhat related" comments, that are not wrong but not very relevant. Also to write giant "walls of text" that discuss the topic and the 5 most important ramifications. So there is an overreaction to correct orthography, grammar and "AI style".

Remember that birds are dinosaurs. And if you think that nobody is scared of birds, you should visit a pen full of rheas (ostrich are a fine substitution). If you have any brilliant ornament on your cloth they will try to eat it and you will be hit by the peak. Also they will steal food from your hands and it hurts. We visit an open zoo with my older daughter when she was a kid. Rheas were locked inside a pen for security reasons, there were a lot of ducks and baby ducks that are cute, and the goose were scary because they are evil and come in organized groups to "ask" for food.
