> It will be littered with negative comments that either imply or outright say that the poster is either shilling, ignorant or working only on toy examples.

And they would be often be right. Coupled with the fact that most of the glowing "omg I only code with AI" posts don't even try to show what code or products they are working on.

And yes, the absolute vast majority of people who are skeptical are skeptical precisely because they use these tools every day themselves.

Just so we are clear, you are upset by people dismissing your experience gained skepticism but have no problem dismissing every positive comment as a shill, ignorant or simple?

You don’t see any dissonance in that? It’s only the positive people that are exhausting?

I myself post positive comments about AI from time to time.

I never pretend that AI is the be all end all of programming, don't claim that it can do all the magical things, or that it's capable of running hours on end just creating software with not proof like most positive posts do.

See the difference?

I'm all for positive posts. I'm against childish belief in magic: https://dmitriid.com/everything-around-llms-is-still-magical...
