This trend of “everybody hates AI!” articles from bluesky people is becoming really tiresome. Every week it’s a new variant on that theme, and never substantiated. Major yawn.

I talk to a lot of people not in tech and the divide is clear: they hate AI, they hate AI art, and they hate AI companies. They seem to hate it all less if they are unsure if it's AI, but that's a different discussion.

    >real people. Are you sure?

      Yes. I have relatives who are constantly forwarding me "funny" AI videos. This is happening all across the US and probably the world.

Yeah so, tech people tend to be in a bubble with regards to AI perception. I implore you to just ask around outside of your immediate sphere. Bring it up, let them talk.

    I think I compelled a lot of emotions with a relatively short one here. (Not that I'm one to defend myself generally; this was just something I felt like I was taking crazy pills on because how can folks not see it?) > But maybe I’m just one of those people with “minor cases of major brain damage”. Hey, you said it not me

    Please consider not writing in the "internet argument" style on HN. I am not categorizing anybody here as "not human" (I'm not sure where you're getting that) - I am describing humans using averages.

      Is that an AI tell? I'm only familiar with em dashes and "it's not X, it's Y." I promise I'm a human being.

        sorry mate, I was just joking :))) I would back that claim though with some citation cause like in my “circle” (personal and professional) nothing but big fans of AI art
