    Love how all the docs around ai tooling are also written by ai. Making it all hyper verbose, repetitive, and unclear.

      Flagged for being AI generated garbage

      HN guidelines explicitly prohibit AI generated comments

      > Don't post generated comments or AI-edited comments. HN is for conversation between humans.

      Not sure what's the policy on AI posts but can't imagine anyone learning anything from that

        I don't think it's correct to flag submissions solely because have incorporated AI in the main content. Many engineering projects incorporate AI (sometimes very heavily), and many of them are still interesting and useful. And the guidelines say nothing about submissions having to be human-made.

        However, I do think it's correct to downvote and perhaps flag submissions that are supremely un-useful.

        I don't trust a vibe-generated course to be great yet, but some day I will and learning will never be the same again.

          As a controls person, it seems crazy neither "Autonomous Systems" nor "Multi-Agent and Swarms" appear to mention any control theory content! :')

            These AI-generated websites often lack margins on the left and right of the text, which looks bad on smaller screens. It seems creators don’t care about testing on smaller devices.

              Looks bad on bigger screens as well.

                Some of us don't want to cater to the dumbed down version of a real computer. You could even say it is something of an stylistic, nay--artistic choice.

                  It is a fancy responsive design. But with no margins.

              Actually the ultimate combo would be to learn this with the learning mode tools provided by AI providers. I must say that it really is a super interesting and efficient way to learn. Any of you tried them ?

                I really think people should learn first and primarily from books written by people. Think about it: the LLMs are trained on that data. So they cannot actually be better than the best original texts. Get good quality original books then learn them in conjunction with AI, but don't try to learn using this. How to downvote?
