> Which are not inherent issues of using llms.
But they are exacerbated by them, so the criticism still stands. No one visits HN for low-quality same-loking submissions. It’s like frequenting r/toolgifs and suddenly almost every post is about one specific hammer. That’d be understandably annoying, and while not the inherent fault of the hammer, it would be an issue only possible because it exists.
I don't disagree, it's annoying. But what's the solution here? Bashing quality submissions because they use AI?
Even if LLMs don't succeed in their seemingly ultimate goal of replacing humans, and I don't think they will, there's no future where we completely stop using them.
I guess either we find out a way to filter out ai-slop or we wait until people are tired of rehashing the same low-effort criticisms.
Now you seem like one of the few people that is concerned over environmental issues and I respect that, if that's why people are against them it's a whole other discussion and we can disregard anything I said here.
