New at 'Desktop On Fire!"

Just saw this post, Haiku OS Tests OpenBSD’s malloc Implementation – Desktop On Fire!

This makes me really sad. The quality of these AI generated articles is just… bad… really bad

" * Tests are ongoing with memory-intensive applications like ImageMagick, which could significantly benefit from these improvements"

This is clearly “sumarized” from the forum topic where @lelldorin asked if Imagemagick would be improved and @waddlesplash answered that he didn’t know.

Haikus forum makes it explicit which license posts here use, it is this one: https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/3.0/deed.en and it requires, explicitly, attribution.

I had really, really hoped that You’d start writing your own articles, or even proofread the output of whatever model you use.

At this point If i see someone linking this on social media I can only sigh.

I am happy that people write about Haiku, and hence I ask you to Please reconsider using these technologies for your articles. It is just plain misinformation.

Heck, even the very first sentence is dead wrong!
" Exciting news for Haiku users: developer waddlesplash has announced that they are in the final stages of developing a new memory management system (malloc) implementation […]"

We are not developing a new Malloc, he is porting one from OpenBSD that seems to track back to 4.4BSD Even. It’s not our code, not even close. It predates Haiku by years in parts.
