Hyperbole is as much of a problem. ChatGPT is not omniscient, but it's also not "dumb as shit", at least not across the board. LLMs got popular in big part because they provide unique, distinctly new value.
This black and white assumption that because LLMs are not always giving probably correct answers therefore they are dangerous, reminds me of what the generation of my parents and teachers thought of Wikipedia when it became popular. The problems were different ("anyone can edit" vs. "hallucinates stuff"), but the mindset seems very similar.
