Lately, when browsing Product Hunt, I've noticed a concerning trend - an influx of AI-generated comments cluttering product/general discussions and reviews.

Some users seem to take product listings, run them through an AI assistant to generate comments, and then copy/paste the responses without any original thought or input.

The product maker then takes the AI-generated comment and responds with their AI-generated reply. The end result is a messy back-and-forth comment thread that provides no real value.

This spam not only clutters the user experience but can also manipulate important signals used by search algorithms. I hope PH steps up moderation before valuable communities are lost to intelligence without care.
