As it stands I don't know what this poll means. Does "No AI" mean that generative AI should never be used or offered? Does "Yes AI" mean that generative AI should be used for everything all the time?

One might accuse me of being intentionally daft, asserting this to be a simple sentiment poll, but I genuinely can't tell. If it were the case, this should ask "do you overall like or dislike generative AI?" Either way this encourages a lack of nuanced thinking on the subject which both tech bro shills and instinctual AI-luddites oft suffer from. The results of this poll are uninterpretable and the effects on the quality of discourse can only be negative.
