I just want to say — this is my real story. I only used AI to help with English because I struggle to express myself properly. I felt scared and stressed writing it, and it’s very personal to me. I only wanted to share what actually happened, but it’s been hard to be understood. :(
Alright, I understand you, you don’t believe me, but you know, I don’t care. I’m actually glad that you at least wrote something, because most of my other posts usually don’t have any comments. Even though your comment wasn’t what I wanted to hear, thank you for at least writing something. Once again, I’m saying that I understand you don’t believe me, but there’s no point for me to prove anything to you. I think it’s better to take a break after these events. Bye.
Hi from Argentina! I usually write the post in English, but in some cases I write the original post in Spanish and use Google translate to get the English version and then edit it to fix the details. It may have some weird quirks caused by translating idioms, but it sounds more authentic.
(I'm not claiming your story is false, but people is very suspicious of AI style.)
I used AI instead of Google Translate to make the story sound more natural and native-like in English, since a direct translation from Ukrainian can feel a bit awkward or unnatural to native speakers.
What's the point of posting text that was obviously generated with an LLM on Hackernews? This is very disrespectful for people's time and effort.
Please post the original prompt.
Even if you respond that your English is not good enough and just wanted AI to clean it up - doesn't matter. Post the original prompt.

I anticipated this response in my original comment, but you seem to have ignored that part: please post the original prompt! Then we can help.

"My relative was taken to the Territorial Recruitment Center (TCC) without a passport and without notifying the family.
He did not have the opportunity to freely contact me or a lawyer, the phone was partially returned, but communication was restricted.
I wrote a report to the police, stating only the facts I knew and added that there might be inaccuracies.
I was afraid of Article 383 of the Criminal Code (knowingly false report), so I formulated it very carefully.
I collected evidence: passport, video, calls.
The TCC initially said he was being medically checked, and then promised to take him home.
He returned home, but accused me of “turning in his passport.”
I experienced extreme stress and trembling because of the situation, as I feared possible consequences and Article 383 of the Criminal Code.
Make a story on HN from my text."
