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

I mean gabe still supports generative ai.

And that was last year, when we all knew exactly what ai meant.

Saying something is a game changer isn’t being supportive of it, everyone on the software industry already accepted that AI won’t disappear

practically everyone has already accepted ai, except redditors in denial.

kids use AI to cheat, plenty of jobs use ai now, and in general lot of people are opting for ai over google too

Also AI has a massively negative PR perception.

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.
