OK fine, this might be one of the best use cases for LLMs that I've seen. The output is pretty witty and impressive for the low cost of some basic scraping infra and a really short but effective prompt (https://github.com/dfeldman/quackernews/blob/38893fdfbc047ac...) Well done OP

It's literally just ChatGPT told to sound like n-gate. The prompt begins: > Create a humorous and mocking summary in the style of n-gate.com. https://github.com/dfeldman/quackernews/blob/1d7591338579162...

Not just that. Scraping the website with AGPL-licensed code and then feeding it into OpenAI's GPT-4 API [1], a corporation led by someone about as "tech bro" as it gets, which they are paying for in attempt to mock? This may be some generational thing, but the layers of "satire" here are reminding me of a snake eating its own tail and I feel more cringe than anything else.

Edit: Took me a while to remember, but if we are talking satire using a large language model, this is how it is done: https://www.goody2.ai Wrote them a thank you e-mail when I first saw it and of course they responded with an e-mail generated with their GOODY-2 prompt to give me yet another great laugh.
