i feel like people should be focusing on the damaging things that aren't just "ai" (like what he hell does that even mean, it's too broad?). dark app patterns, gambling, etc. like seriously, i know we all want to hate o

not sure why i find a lot of these types of comments lately, just a sign of the times i guess? criticism sure, but to reduce all of his work as if it were a paragraph prompt or something, that's something else. i hate when the people
