At the various companies I've worked at, we usually want to post our job postings in the monthly "Who's hiring" thread. It's always been a pain for me to rewrite our job postings to match the Hacker News style.
I thought it would be nice to be able to have someone else generate a summary for me; that someone is AI. I wanted to find a practical use case for myself to build using AI and now I'm sharing it for others who might find it useful.
It is interesting to see these tools used for reformatting unstructured text, as the T in ETL for written words.
One missing thing here, that I expect is a difficult gap to fill is, how to improve the post for better top of funnel. Hard because we don't know what makes a good post vs bad, but this is general, not specific to HN posts
