I don't think the issue is that they used ai behind the scenes, but there is an implicit proof of work from forcing it beyond the style you'd expect. I for one roll my eyes whenever I see that specific kind of rounded corner, frosted glass ui and layout choices. It looks like someone trying to superficially/ham-fistedly trying to replicate "good taste" without actually having a good model of taste, its quite uncanny/bootleg.
I think its worth emphasizing that his argument isn't completely against generative ai, but rather its environment. Although I don't see why it would be impossible for something like an LLM to learn some sort of self-play within its context window
I don't completely disagree but its worth noting how new a lot of the empirical evidence in favour of LLMs are, so its not impossible to be a tad ignorant of the present

Unironically twitter (and only use the "Following" tab as opposed to the "For You")
Make an account that only follows university affiliated researchers with less than 1000 followers. In my experience discord servers get suffocated by beginners and crackpots because conversations don't naturally self-organize into their own threads.
My point here being that representationally, it might be possible to learn good dynamics without a radically different approach/arch. There are already models that extract 3D tracking points from videos, so they could possibly be leveraged for learning dynamics (which on its own gives precedent for end-to-end approaches also possibly working).
People not wanting their jobs be automated is different from not yearning for automation as a principle. Most people want or (at least don't mind) elevators, tap water, dishwashers, traffic lights, electrical fuses, sliding doors, etc. Its a very general term

Software brain is powerful stuff. It’s a way of thinking that basically created our modern world. Marc Andreessen, the literal embodiment of software brain, called it in 2011 when he wrote the piece “Why software is eating the world” as an op-ed in The Wall Street Journal. But software thinking has been turbocharged by AI in a way that I think helps explain the enormous gap between how excited the tech industry is about the technology and how regular people are growing to dislike it more and more over time.

Wouldn’t an absolute number make more sense to show than a percent. 75% is pretty good in some places in the world (not justifying the discrepancy though)
