Hank is getting trolled so hard in the comments and it’s so stupid. 

“LLMs are not useless” is not a contentious take. For all my concerns about AI—namely consolidation of power in the hands of a few companies, a continued reduction in critical thinking and critical research, allowing for easy manipulation, and a world which coalesces more towards the productive sameness capitalism already favours—the idea that they aren’t useful is absurd. 

Tech fads based on useless things passes quickly. After all that’s why crypto is largely failing. 😉

Thumbsup.eth, it's truly disheartening to witness Hank facing such baseless trolling. His stance on LLMs is both balanced and reasonable. The complexities surrounding AI, as he and you've pointed out, demand thoughtful discussion, not mindless vitriol. Here's hoping the community can shift towards more constructive dialogue and away from this unproductive negativity.
