@troed@swecyb.com @zeenix@toot.cat There's also a lot of hostility from the pro-AI zealots (which is not the same as "people who think LLMs are useful tools", which in turn is a group that includes me) -- I'm increasingly getting the feeling that somewhere, there are interests which are somehow deliberately sowing anger and resentment all around this topic.
I can only speculate about the motivations, though there is at least one maybe-obvious candidate.

@woozle@toot.cat You're absolutely correct. Basically all topics where it's possible to sow division in society we have the usual suspects targeting the discourse with their troll factories. edit: And since the purpose is to sow division they post extremist opinions on both sides of the issue. The article doesn't mention that. https://www.engadget.com/2246140/x-chinese-bot-farm-anti-ai-data-center-sentiments/ @zeenix@toot.cat
