That was the initial impression of it. Now that we’ve had more experience with it and learned that it can’t be relied on, perception has changed. It is oversold and the costs are not worth what we are getting out of it.
Not where I am. I haven’t met anyone irl that has any spite with AI. They think it’s interesting. Have tried it a few times. But nobody is out there saying fuck AI.

No, I’d definitely agree that AI sentiment overall is pretty negative. I am not such a hardliner, but they are definitely out there.
IMO the problem is not LLMs itself, which are very compelling and interesting for strictly language processing and enable programs and usecases that were almost impossible to implement programmatically before; the problem is how LLMs are being used incorrectly for usecases that they are not suited for, due to the massive investment and hype in them. “We spent all this money on this so now we have to use it for everything”. It’s wrong. LLMs are not knowledge stores, they are provably bad at summarization and as a search interface, and they should especially not be used for decision making in any context. And people are reacting to the way LLMs are being forced into all of these roles.
People also take strong issue with their perceived violation of intellectual property and training on copyrighted information, viewing AI generated arts as derivative and theft.
