> How strange.

People enjoy different things. Its not strange. Treating it as strange is kinda insulting, so I'd recommend that you rethink how you phrase this.

Totally agree. I found it insulting.

People enjoy different things. Its not strange.

Yes! Which means that the argument frequently seen here of "AI is terrible because everyone hates using it" is not valid.

I wouldn't say I've seen that specific argument. But insomuch as people say that, yes, its not a valid argument.

I've seen plenty of people here claiming things like "anyone who enjoys coding hates AI," "anyone who enjoys the process as much as the outcome hates AI," "anyone who's creative hates AI," etc.

It's all projection to make themselves feel better about their difficulty adapting to change.

Those are different statements than "AI is terrible because everyone hates using it" though.

It's the exact same function applied to a different argument: "everyone" vs. some defined subset of everyone.
