But Marcus is decidedly NOT anti-AI, he's just against the idea that LLMs are the be-all end-all of AI. He may be right about that, or he may be wrong, but describing him as anti-AI is just wrong.
- ants_everywhere 1y agoWhat I'm saying is it's easy for folks like him to fall into the trap of writing for an undiscriminating audience because their feedback is so positive and strong. He was (and I think still is) a believer in psychological nativism, which I think is an intellectual dead end. You can't really believe in LLMs while also being a nativist. But nobody really cares about the axe he's grinding (nativism), yet when he writes about the "slopocalypse" he gets positive feedback.
