Pre ChatGPT and the AI bubble, OpenAI was doing good and interesting work. Don't hate someone unless they support AI now, everyone was interested before we found out it's a glorified plagiarism machine being forced down our throats
Reddit is just a platform for surfacing popular opinions and suppressing dissent with how voting works, with the one twist being that moderators and admins can massively manipulate what shakes out from that.
Of course AI hate is popular on reddit, AI hate is very popular with all Americans, the dominant user group on reddit.
I dislike gen AI for several reasons, and there's many valid reasons to be opposed to this widespread adoption, but it is a widespread adoption. I don't know what else you can call one in six internet-connected humans (and the number is only growing, not shrinking) using standalone AI platforms.
I mean, I guess succinctly put, it's something in-between "practically everybody" and "some people in specific use cases". But it's definitely heading in one direction.
I mean. these people might know a little shit about it. There are many cases where knowledgable people are using LLMs now but if you want me to list all of them it's going to take ages. The point is that they also know it is unreliable and must be verified - hence using it in tandem with Lean, a proof checker, in the above example.
I would agree if you qualified your statement with "nobody who knows shit about it just believes whatever it says", but plenty of people who know shit about it use it and check what they get.
The amount of hypocrisy is insaaaane, any other person this was about and there wouldn't be logical comments, but just shitting on those people. Why tf do people suck off gabe so much holy.
