Why are the pro AI people so obsessed with proving the AI skeptics wrong.

Is AI is working for you? Great. Go make great things. Isn't that the point after all? Who cares who believes you if the results speak for themselves?

Cognitive dissonance. "Why are people claiming they do not see any benefit and I do? That is unacceptable, they must be wrong."

I have to admit cognitive dissonance works both ways.

It seems to me the pro-AI types just want to be free to enjoy a transformative tech and discuss the implications of its development and innovations - without being badgered and henpecked or told the results they see are some kind of mass delusion.


The "badgering and henpecking" "problem" was created entirely by AI bros hyping AI to everyone and forcing it in every possible channel and avenue.

You're literally trying to blame the victim. Put "don't show AI content" on every major platform and the henpecking will stop but (aside from technical annoyanced of doing it) that won't happen because companies want to force AI down our throats.


> Put "don't show AI content" on every major platform and the henpecking will stop

Your argument then is: "Ban the subject of AI from your platforms or we're coming at you with pitchforks. And don't say anything to us when we do, because we are the sad ones here." Correct?
