It’s okay to be a sceptic, I am too, but the logic and reasoning in the post is just really flimsy and makes our debate look weak.

seriously. if you want to say that AI will likely reduce wages and supply for certain more boilerplate jobs; or that they are comparatively much worse for the environment than normal coding; or that they are not particularly good once you get into something quite esoteric or complex; or that they've led certain companies to think that developing AGI is a good idea; or that they're mostly centralised into the hands of a few unpleasant actors; then any of those criticisms, and certainly others, are valid to me, but to say that they're not actually useful or provide little value? it's just nonsense or ragebait
