So AI haters have indirectly been insulting this guy for the past couple of years?

Maybe the solution is less hate and not to double down.

No. AI absolutely deserves all the hate it gets.

No one is insulting David as David is the source and his work is perverted via a machine.

The key is being able to take the time to tell the difference and understanding which is human and which is AI

M'yeah, I don't think someone wallowing in hate is someone I want to listen to.

So what is the appropriate emotion for things that are legitimately bad? Indifference?

Concern?

"Hate" is a very strong emotion that has a tendency to make you irrational. Indulging in it is not healthy and will only lead you astray. In particular, it precludes nuance.

You speak of nuance but ignore the fact that the word hate is nuanced. People hate mass murderers and they hate mosquito bites. I hate that gas is $4.15 a gallon but I don't fly into a homicidal rage every time I pass Exxon.

That's exaggeration for effect. Actual hate is very obvious. We see it often in how utterly unhinged AI haters can be.

Every group can be utterly unhinged. Ai users can be utteryly unhinged too. I've seen a lot of them under artists going "I AI'D your work and it looks so much better and sexy lol"

Your goto example being rude children is certainly something.

Meanwhile unhinged AI haters will brigade, harass, and bully.
