No disagreement here. But I think you’re taking people’s words a little too literally.

I know they mean LLMs and diffusion models mostly, but those same people show up in other threads about AI (like, recently, JEPA models) with the same negative attitude despite it being a research project and not a commercial project. This misconception is leading to machine learning research topics catching strays.

I know my response isn’t going to be popular, nuance isn’t something people like being faced with in their quest for outrage.
