From my experience, which is of course anecdotal, a large chunk of the population is still in the “impressed” phase, where they are wowed by all the tricks and impressive demos chatgpt has. And a large chunk, typically the younger and more online / political aware - they absolutely loathe ai. For stealing from artists, ruining online spaces with slop, spreading misinformation, deepfake porn, and of course screwing the economy, destroying jobs, and polluting the world so a few ultra rich people can get richer, and a few more people like you can make mid-six figures while everybody else has to cope. If the trend i see continues, i would expect the second group will get very big very soon. Either because the hype is real and ai is taking jobs, or because the hype wasn’t real and they feel lied to.
