HN is already struggling with losing valued members, mods, and contributions because of significantly more low value/high noise submissions and comments. As are many community sites (forums, advice, professional assistance).
Sites that don't ban and remove AI will become entirely AI, if that's your thing there's plenty of them around, why does HN have to morph into that? It resisted morphing into a self-promotion site (eg. ProductHunt, GumRoad), a crypto site, a security-vulnerability site (some exceptions), a political battleground (struggling), a blog repost site (some exceptions), a version release site, an unofficial big-tech support site.
