I'm really wondering: Guys, what's going on? This blanket aversion to anything with AI on it is almost religious and reminds me of the "mobile phone rays" opponents. Man, I'm really not a fan of this hype either, but calm down.

And blocking people who use AI-generated images across the board, well... I don't get it.

@phranck I think it’s less a developer thing than a “Mastodon anti-capitalist” thing. This place attracts a certain kind of crowd.

It’s just the flip side of (and, to a degree, reaction to) the hype-infected hardcore rah-rah AI people.

Normal people are somewhere in the middle, seeing room for nuanced criticism without ignoring the benefits of the technology. These aren’t the people who get all the attention, though.
