It's also fair to say there's a personality type that becomes fully bought into the newest emerging technologies, insisting that everyone else is either bought into their refusal or "just doesn't get it." Look, I'm not against LLMs making me super-human (or at least super-me) in terms of productivity. It just isn't there yet, or maybe it won't be. Maybe whatever approach after current LLMs will be. I think it's just a little funny that you started by accusing people of dismissing others as "unwashed masses", only to conclude that the people who disagree with you are being unreasonable, near-religious, and simply lashing out.

I don't describe disagreeing with anyone, nor do I describe the people making these comments as near-religious, or simply lashing out, nor do I describe anyone as unreasonable I reject simplistic binaries and They-ing altogether, it's incredibly boring and waste of everyones time.

Are you sure I didn't separate the paragraphs on purpose? Paragraph breaks are commonly used to separate ideas and topics. Is it possible I intended to do that? I could claim I did, but it seems you expect me to wait for your explanation for what I'm thinking.
