I like to use AI for research and learning about new topics, and for occasional code snippets.

I'm not completely sold on the "agent" thing yet, although I do admit they can be pretty fun to use.

I'm very pro-AI and i think LLMs are an important technical step in achieving it (even if in the end it might turn out that LLMs helped achieve AI by showing how not to do it). But they suffer from premature commercialization. I'm very much against trying to sell them as the ultimate solution to everything. And another issue, not related to the technical aspect, is that business practices of certain self-styled "AI companies" calls for guillotining of their upper management.

I'm against people continually referring to spicy autocomplete (aka LLMs) "AI".

You people do know that the I in AI stands for "Intelligence" right?

I'm for AI the technology. Who doesn't want cool sci-fi future tech? But I'm against AI being co-opted by our dear leaders to end white collar work and lock us all in a permanent underclass.

What do you mean by "AI"? The LLM stuff we have now or real AI, ie, HAL 9000?
