Some perspective ... I really do not see 'the public hating AI' outside of a very specific demographic (17-30 year old artsy types, generally left-leaning). Average everyday people in my area either don't care about AI at all, or like it, using it as a better search engine.

The situation might be different in the States, but I'd wager Joe Sixpack, brass fisher in Montana, couldn't care less about GPT-5.5 or whatever Musk is up to these days.

I don’t think Montana fishermen have a broad impact on society, or its decision making. There’s just not that many of them.

On the contrary I would bet people who enjoy fly-fishing in Montana are over represented in Congress.
