That’s pretty much how you sound, buddy.
If the AI created was really useful and made open to all freely, a different song would be sung, you know.
Right now, it is simply as useful as putting gas on a fire to extinguish it.

Thinking it’s only about the LLMs is pretty reductive, though I guess it makes for an easily digestible statement.
We don’t ask people to be mad about the tool, it’s about how we’re being told The Tool is the most important human endeavor, while the mass usage of The Tool has yet to prove more worthwhile than having a chat with a friend, all the while we create a lot of ethical, ecological and economical debt in order to keep evolving The Tool, and funneling most of the products of that debt into the hands of people who already have more than enough.
So The Tool as of yet has had way more negative direct and side effects, both by its use and its development, than any projected positive outcomes that comes out of the mass deployment and usage of The Tool.
This is what - to me, one of the Luddite who would rather stop this cancer from growing - we are mad about, and why, given the scale of things at this moment and what is projected, think people should be more in the know of the revolting realities that are not said in all those nice press releases and consumer expos.
