I have hard time believing this is AI-generated. Every headline looks like a hand-crafted ironic nod to some long-running HN topic, sci-fi trait, or meme.

But it is, of course, more trendy (and more ironic) to proclaim an AI the author.

i agree. the thing that stands out to me is that almost every entry is quite notable - i.e. each entry would have a vote/comment count in at least the multiple-hundreds if not more. and all those events in one homepage seems very unrealistic.

it seems human generated to me or at least prompted with a stronger bias for choosing events that would be interesting to readers, not just a pure extrapolation of the current homepage into the future

This is just absurd.

You can just tell in this thread who really hasn't used these models much at all.

what's absurd? i haven't claimed it's not capable of this, just that the predictions seem more tailored to elicit a certain recognition from humans rather than chosen based on an honest attempt to predict a possible future HN homepage. Since the prompt apparently didn't include such a modifier, and as far as I know Gemini isn't trained by default to do so, I call shenanigans.
