I have a visceral dislike, even hate, for what the LLM hype brought the world. The never ending slop it is spouting, filling up the entire internet. More and more I get confronted with images and media that turn out to be AI generated, when I find out I am disgusted and just close the tab. Soulless drivel, endlessly streaming. And I'm confident that the education system as we know it will be severely damaged because of it. Even in our own field, I can guarantee you that software developers that "grew up" with these garbage AI assistants will be worse coders than the generation that came before. You will never develop the understanding, the insight, that's needed by chatgpt'ing your way through college and life. Excellent news for my own market value of course, but I don't hesitate to say that I regret the LLM hype happened, the impact on the world is overwhelmingly negative (not even touching on the catastrophic environmental and financial cost to society).
