Does HN auto re-write headlines using an LLM or something?

No, a regular expression. Generative language models usually produce different kinds of error, and rarely fade into the background in the same way the automatic headline rewriting tool does (when it isn't rendering the titles incomprehensible, at least).

A small language model

It compresses exceptionally well, and has highly-optimised CPU implementations.
