> perhaps most importantly on what makes humans, human

What makes humans human is love, laughter, community, children, art, beauty. How are LLMs even remotely a threat to this? The piece is so hyperbolic, it's just hard to take seriously

I really feel that the anti-AI crowd is becoming a weird religion, kind of like the crypto NFT crowd was a few years ago. Most people that use AI are just like "yeah whatever, it does X, Y or Z, sometimes it sucks and I have to re-prompt it, it's pretty neat."

While the anti-AI crowd is like "I PLEDGE TO NEVER USE AI, HERE IS MY BLOOD OATH." Like, calm down. It's not that big of a deal. Some of these bullet points are just straight-up nonsense.

> I won’t read AI summaries as a substitute for reading the source material with my own damn eyes.

Author is... just defining what a summary is. Yeah, no one looks at summaries as if they're the original text. Ever. What is he even saying here?

Absolutely opposite experience. People do not shut up about it once they’ve tried it, and come up with all sorts of whacky use cases for it. Best friend suggested I ask ChatGPT whether it’s cheaper to renovate or knock down a house I bought specifically to renovate it, which I’ve told him on multiple occasions.

AI is the successor to all things crypto, there’s definitely religious fervour to it like there was around blockchain/NFT’s changing the world.
