HN is overwhelmingly pro-AI and on the LLM hype train. Silicon Valley and YC are largely only investing in that sector right now. Pretending there is some huge contrarian group here is absurd

View on HN

this is a really common problem online and HN too: some people think the general consensus is really biased one direction, and some people (reading the same material) think the opposite is true.

i see people constantly ragging on LLMs as being infringing and bad and wanting to see them fail

Are they? Virtually every comment on this thread, and the two others from the past week, have a pretty negative sentiment overall if not more or less saying "I told you so"

I mean, I think people are getting a little tired of the hype; not sure how many true believers there are at this point.

Losing faith at an (arguable) lull of two years are not the believers we need anyway. Some of us were believers even ten years ago.

You're talking like AI is a religion
