This is the second or third HN post I'm seeing this month along the lines of "how dare AI companies flag my code as AI-generated". I just don't remember similar complaints about the iPhone footer. Not many HNers complain about The North Face putting the text "The North Face" on their hoodies either. Or Honda putting their logo on the car.
The reasons for this difference are interesting. The fact that companies put their logos / brands on stuff is a lot less interesting to me. You can call it bad, but again, why is this instance worse?
Plenty of people turned off the iPhone thingie once they figured out where the setting was (kinda buried).
Plenty of people don’t like logos. And some do, because they tie their identity with brands. Maybe in the future some of us will tie our identities to specific agents/LLMs.
To each their own. I don’t have clothing with logos, I find it gross. And you also don’t know I’ve sent you an email from an iPhone. Ça va.
