LLMs are an awesome technology. They have their flaws. The companies behind them are totally unethical. The hype is insane and it is insane how many crappy AI integrations are popping up everywhere. Business models are in many cases not there. There is a real fear of job loss. But this tech is here to stay and you can do awesome thing with it. People totally misunderstand the whole energy usage issue. People are abusing ChatGPT & Co for things it is not build for and OpenAI actively encourages them.

But I really think that this community here has gone too much in the direction of AI hate. Even if somebody posts a great and substantial article, it will get downvoted because AI is in the title. And I really would like to discuss current AI here without people simply downvoting everything they do not like without having read the article
