    So this:

    between idiots believing AI is the devil and idiots believing AI is their new lord and savior

    wasn’t mud-slinging, in your opinion? Calling someone an idiot isn’t an attack?

      No, calling pigs rolling around in the mud pigs is neither an insult nor taking part in the strange mud bath ritual.

      But as you seem to be bad with analogies:

      Spouting ideology for the sake of it is bullshit no matter which side does it. Pitting your ideological dogmas against each other is not a discussion. If that’s your thing start a new religion (that’s not even far off from some of the influencer and tech-bro bullshit nowadays anyway…).

      Most people are sick of the always same “AI is the evil and will destroy us all!”, “No, you need to embrace our saviour AI that will save us all or get left behind!” idiocy repeated a million times in slightly different spelling. You need to be absolutely lost in a delusion to miss the costantly alternating pattern of pro-AI / anti-AI posts in social and other media pushed to keep engagement going. Ffs… when it’s about the Linux kernel it’s even worse and even more obvious when we are bombarded with alternating pro- and anti-AI statements from the same single person. People can’t be that dense. So why pretend that at this point it’s something else but induced insanity.
