Yeah I'm not versed in the subject enough to say/think you're wrong necessarily. I do know the general slant Lemmy's population has against it though.
Lemmy's population is overrepresented by software engineers who know more about how LLMs actually work than the general public does. Let that sink in.
Also a field disproportionately affected by it so still kinda biased
GenAI as it currently stands is a fancy text predictor. You ever had your phone suggest the next word in a message you're typing? It's that, on crack.
When you really wrap your head around the fact that that is all it's doing, it loses a lot of its appeal imho. Especially for the cost to do so.
