You know who else isn’t shying away from the new tools? Trump and his cronies.

Hard to think of a poorer argument against AI use.

In line with the rest of the comments here so far where there's lots of anti AI rage but little to no coherent arguments that specify how Linus using AI to code is a bad thing. No specifics, lots of vague beating around the bush, highly emotive language.

    My point wasn't to lay out every argument against using LLMs. That's been done ad nauseum elsewhere (not this comment thread no but other communities).

    My point was his supposed beast mode was a poor argument for them by pointing out the exact same argument works both ways. Both smart people and dumb people are using them.

    And quite honestly, in my experience, the people I respect and call intelligent are not the ones that shy away from using new and interesting tools.

    (But) Both smart people and dumb people are using them

    This is not the gotcha you seem to think it is...
