I mean, I like (gen)AI, and spend a lot of time defending it from the "haters". I think it's a useful tool, interesting philosophical topic, and generally fun to play with. I'm even willing to entertain the idea that it might be truly intelligent, sentient, or possibly even self-aware in a meaningful way.

I still get an "ick" feeling when reading some of the most 4o-toned text that it puts out. It's just unsettling in an uncanny valley way.
