Ask HN: How do you feel about posts about GenAI taking over the HN front page?
There seem to be a lot of opinion pieces about GenAI on the front page lately. How do others feel about this? I feel conflicted. I understand that GenAI is one of the biggest topics in tech right now. Yeah it makes sense that it gets a lot of attention. But I would find it a loss if the front page became too heavily skewed towards commentary on a single topic... more so when there are so many other technical areas worth discussing. 3 comments on Hacker News.
