Ask HN: Add flag for AI-generated articles
Should HN add the ability to flag articles as AI-generated? This doesn't have to act as a regular flag, i.e., it won't de-rank the article; it could just show up as an indicator, allowing others (like myself) who don't like reading AI-generated text, to skip it. Open questions: 1. Why is the regular voting system not enough? 2. Should HN change in response to the gen AI era? It has been successful not changing fundamentals.
