That's the thing, I don't think LLMs bring many benefits. Too many lies, and so on.
I think most people are too trusting and have a political agenda to hate AI for all the obvious reasons. But it solves a few very central problems for me reasonably well and people don't get to decide what I spend my money on. AI is neither the miracle dream future not the word ending scam people make it out to be. Using a tool still takes skill and angrily screaming people down (not you) won't change that AI is here to stay. I don't like calling it AI, for all the reasons. But deep learning and LLMs are a useful technology in many regards. No doubt about it.
Even if you say "no doubt about it", plenty of people seem to have doubts.
Anyway, I suggest we agree to disagree.
Agreed.
