Do you think that AI-generated comments make communities like Product Hunt a better place?

We've seen a lot of growth in AI comment generators lately  auto-creating comments and replies based on available info. Do you think apps like these are positive or detrimental to community-focused platforms like Product Hunt? Fwiw, we're aware that many folks are already choosing to use these kinds of services on Product Hunt. We're actively working on ways to address it, but I'm curious how our community feels about this type of engagement. Please vote (and explain your thoughts)!

We redesigned Product Hubs, would love your thoughts.

Hey all, we just released a few updates to product hubs with a focus on converting visitors to your website/apps/social, and providing the right information to community members who are researching new products. As an example, here's Notion's product hub: https://www.producthunt.com/prod... (you can access your product hubs in the new sidebar on the homepage) The header was re-focused on driving conversions, followers, and saves. We ve removed upvote counts and focused on reviews + followers on the hub pages; while upvotes are important for launch day, we ve found that they re not necessarily a highly correlated signal for overall product quality, especially for community members researching products months (or years) after a launch. The updated sidebar displays links, product info, and makers more prominently, and the rest of the page has been simplified with an additional focus on reviews (currently sorted by recent, so make sure you re encouraging your community to leave reviews). As always, Product Hunt is in a constant state of change, so let us know what you think about these changes and if you have any suggestions or recommendations moving forward!
