Is this AI generated? The first paragraph sounds sort of Chat-GPT-esque to me.

Considering it sounds nothing like their past comments, I'm guessing they're asking ChatGPT to rephrase their words.

Nice catch, the switch in comment style is very noticeable

The classifier considers the text to be unclear if it is AI-generated. Try it for yourself at: https://platform.openai.com/ai-text-classifier

same. turing test failed. it's over-wordified, too formal, message-light. how did it get to the top?

Wouldn't be surprised if GPT-4 learned it's style from higher quality HN comments.

Please don't post shallow dismissals. It ruins what this site is for.

Interesting that the message content is not what’s being adjudicated by down votes here. If a mod says it: all good. If a cocommenter says it: very bad.
