I hate how LLMs have made any talk about machine learning immediately cause a bad reaction for most people. ML isn't inherently bad. LLMs are a neat technology, but it is hard for people to understand that when capitalism does what capitalism does best (extract and pervert). Now no one is excited to see anything related to ML.
I remember when GAN images started to be shown around the internet (which looked like acid trips lol) and I was so excited to see the technology improve. Now no one is excited to see anything ML because it is being used to do the worst things: spy, replace workers, cheat, propagandize, steal from the commons, lie, destroy the environment, destroy the economy, and (of course) kill people.
