Who in slurping the slop here? Do you talk to people? I've been doing deep canvassing for the last 2 years. One common element seen across country are American's complete utter hatred of these companies.

Majority of artists hate it. Celebrities routinely comment how much they hate it. It's become a punchline to describe anything that sucks.

I'm sorry but force feeding something that is deeply unpopular ain't working. If it was, companies like OpenAI + Anthropic wouldn't be trying to so hard to expand their fill of corporate welfare.

You're in a bubble, like most of tech.

If they hate these companies why is usage of llms increasing so much?

Artists are the wrong people to ask. Ask non-artists and non friends of artists how they feel about being able to generate images on command.

Man, did you miss the mark with that shot. I defiantly do not use AI. So much so that my job may be in jeopardy for refusing to use it. I hate these companies with every fiber of my being. I've been through multiple industry changing "new things" that was going to be the end of my career, and not one has worked. If AI is the one that ends my career in tech, then so be it.
