Yeah, I see quite a lot of misanthropy in the rhetoric people sometimes use to advance AI. I'll say something like "most people are able to learn from their mistakes, whereas an LLM won't" and then some smartass will reply "you think too highly of most people" -- as if this simple capability is just beyond a mere mortal's abilities.
