This trend of “everybody hates AI!” articles from bluesky people is becoming really tiresome. Every week it’s a new variant on that theme, and never substantiated. Major yawn.

Yeah so, tech people tend to be in a bubble with regards to AI perception. I implore you to just ask around outside of your immediate sphere. Bring it up, let them talk.
Awful lot of assumptions being made about me. Maybe you should stick to writing incredibly compelling articles instead.

But maybe I’m just one of those people with “minor cases of major brain damage”.

I think I compelled a lot of emotions with a relatively short one here. (Not that I'm one to defend myself generally; this was just something I felt like I was taking crazy pills on because how can folks not see it?)

Hey, you said it not me

I talk to a lot of people not in tech and the divide is clear: they hate AI, they hate AI art, and they hate AI companies. They seem to hate it all less if they are unsure if it's AI, but that's a different discussion.
The seems in contradiction with AI content on Instagram and Facebook that get a disturbing amount of likes from real people.
>real people.

Are you sure?

Yes. I have relatives who are constantly forwarding me "funny" AI videos. This is happening all across the US and probably the world.
I'm sorry - you are in a bubble. Humans, on average, hate the idea of genAI art, specifically.
lol bluesky people? as opposed to what? the white supremacists bots on x.com?
