I made this site analyzes Hacker News developers sentiment toward AI coding that it examines ~1,000 AI-related articles from the past 3 years to see whether HN is leaning toward enthusiasm or skepticism, and which side is louder. Please check it out, thank you.

Thank you, much appreciated.

Of course, not everyone who appears on HN's front page is an experienced developer, and I'm not a statistician. I should note that the data underwent filtering and ideally it didn't count the managers' fluff.

This task is inherently impractical, even with comments, nobody should care about averages. If you want the real experts' opinion, go to the experts. https://youtu.be/-0MD3Jn60fw?t=130

I hope people understand that it's a meme website lol.

Don't believe the hype, this is tribal thinking. Everybody seems to have these widely diverging opinions on AI lately. What does AGI have to do with predicting the next token stochastically like a parrot? Oh, people say you can brute-force AGI, if only things are answered correctly. I get that, I still see SOTA models sometimes fail like babies. I also mostly see them perform at a much higher intelligence and work ethics than I can, but maybe I'm too hard on myself.

Anyway, here's something I've recently build that shows the HN consensus when it comes to AI-Coding (spoiler: they say it's quite good): https://is-ai-good-yet.com/ Is AI “good” yet? – A survey website that analyzes Hacker News sentiment toward AI coding.
