I know it's controversial during this incredible AI hype cycle on this site, but as a AI skeptic and increasingly neo-Luddite, I've reduced the amount I spend on this site by 90% since the start of the year.<p>If only I could add my userscript on my iOS Firefox to just hide any post containing the words "GPT", "AI" or "LLM", but alas, I guess I will have to be productive instead of slacking off reading HN.<p>I honestly miss the Bitcoin hype era, or the short lived Erlang circlejerk that had pg himself put a stop to it. This one does not seem to die down anytime soon, and I'd like to read more criticism of the technology, rather than starry eyed engineers excited to add ChatGPT to their smart fridge and bird feeder.<p>EDIT: Funny. 1 hour ago when I wrote this comment, this post was in 3rd position. Now, with 82 votes and 103 comments, it's nowhere to be found in the first 10 pages. @dang, what's going on?
