Young people love AI when it helps them cheat homework, or when used for roleplay and memes. Generating "content" with AI - is generally more hated, especially art and video.

Sounds hypocritical.
I hate knives cause they kill people, but I love my kitchen knife when I make dinner.
That is a bad counter-example, because its just a poorly conceived statement. You apparently don't hate knives. You hate killing people, which isn't remotely similar.

Using AI to cheat at academics and then hating on people who use AI to cheat on media creation is absolutely hypocritical. Its qualifying hypocritical stupidity like this results in shoving a single vendor's LLM into the browser.

If that's still too complicated then just call it complexity - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cognitive_complexity
