I’'m curious about the strong negative feelings towards AI and LLMs. While I don’t defend them, I see their usefulness, especially in coding. Is the backlash due to media narratives about AI replacing software engineers? Or is it the theft of training material without attribution? I want to understand why this topic evokes such emotion and why discussions often focus on negativity rather than control, safety, or advancements.

    Yeah, “democratize art” means “I’m jealous of the cash sloshing around out there.”

    People say things like “I’m not as good as this guy on TikTok.” Why do you need to be? Literally, who asked?
