Well there's the problem.
I'm a software developer and I say that AI is the greatest force-multiplier that's been introduced into the field since the compiler. I love using it, it handles the most tedious and annoying parts of the process. But there are situations I don't want to use it in, and of course being forced to use would give me a more negative opinion of it. Obviously.
There isn’t any credible evidence out there that actually shows LLMs are a “force multiplier.” That is almost certainly just a made up marketing term for unprofitable chatbot companies.

Did you miss the part about no credible evidence? Feeling like something is a certain way doesn’t make it true.
