    You’re missing the forest for the trees. While you’re nitpicking my syntax, actual systems in the real world are failing because of the exact defects I’m describing. If you’d rather focus on a dash than the collapse of data integrity, then you’re exactly the kind of person who will be blindsided when the damage hits your own doorstep.

      Dude, you're writing about the impacts of AI and you're either getting your article written by AI or you have talked so much to ChatGPT-5 that you're pick up its language patterns. I mean, two years ago you wouldn't have known how to type an em-dash (you probably still don't) and nobody talked like that. If you don't know that's a tell I question if you know enough about AI to have an opinion.

      Now HN is under assault by people who are posting endless AI slop essays written by AI about the dangers of AI -- it's not as bad as you think it is, it's much worse, AI has stolen your voice!

    Tell the AI that wrote this to lay off on the em dash and the "is not A; it is B" pattern.
