Yeah, I'm not buying most of this story either. It sounds like a well designed malware distribution facility. GCHQ couldn't have done better.

Is it really a constant rate? Or is it a Law of Large Numbers kind of thing, where past a certain scale the randomness gets smoothed out and looks constant? Or something else?

(Obviously some developers are better or worse than others, so I presume your observation is assuming developer skill as a constant.)

I haven't used that site since they started blocking TOR.

(Yes, I know they have an onion. Try it some time. Guess which company's infrastructure blocks your anonymous request.)

Has any enterprising hacker here yet graphed price vs "output" over time since 2023, taking "quality" into account?

That's got to be a very tricky analysis given how subjective quality is. But I'm sure there are people trying to pin it down.

Wow. Dude creates an account more than 5 years ago, doesn't say a single thing until today, posts a completely innocuous thank-you, and gets downvoted into the gray.

Shame on whoever did that. You should lose your downvoting rights. The community deserves better.

Just wanted to say hello and encourage you to share your perspective. I saw that you got flagged on your second ever comment (possibly because it sounded like your first). Unfortunately, there are some very itchy trigger fingers here when it comes to shooting down AI slop. Surviving long enough to get a few karma points and not be treated like a bot was much harder than I expected, so I want to toss you an upvote and thanks in advance for sticking with it.

I wish I could give you good, brief advice on how to avoid getting downvoted to death before you even get started. There are undoubtedly others who would do a better job. So I'll just say "try really hard not to appear like ChatGPT write your post."

Everything imaginable is being impacted by AI, in expected and in surprising ways. Communities are going to need to put extra effort into things that used to just happen, like welcoming new members. Here's mine.

(I hope I'm not wrong and that you're not actually a spammer. But I think my bet is safe enough. :-)

Is this really necessary?
