Don’t feel bad - you just dared to bruise their favorite “AI BAD” narrative with practical facts. Sometimes this place really is just an echo chamber to shout idiotic wishes into the dark instead of a forum for actual discussion.
Thanks for the message. I don't feel bad that other people have no idea how their own lives work. It's kind of sad to some degree, but how many people know how their car engine or phone work? Relatively few.
Personally, it's just crazy how MAGA-like it all is, the emotional groupthink.
