The issue is people downoting him for stating a simple fact.

Like, I also use AI a bit, it can hepp productivity a lot too, and my opinion is still that overall if we had no ML at all the world woild be a better place than now, and that's despite the many extremely good use cases for ML and even LLMs.

Even having a conversation about that will take a while to happen because most people think that AI literally means something like ChatGPT.

I don't know enough about the other kinds to say much definitively, but I do completely invalidate generative AI being of any possible use as I understand it. Other than as a tech demo. Seeing what Sora could do was interesting as a matter of curiosity about what it was possible to get to happen with it current tech.

But I don't think it should ever be used as literally anything other than a demo of what is literally possible.
