Ask HN: Add flag for AI-generated articles

63levkk💬 22

I am asking if Hacker News should add a feature to flag articles as AI-generated without affecting their ranking. I want this indicator to help users who prefer not to read AI-generated text to easily skip them. I am also questioning why the current voting system is insufficient and whether Hacker News should change its fundamentals in response to the gen AI era.
