It’s a revolutionary tool in its infancy, and it’s already very useful on certain tasks.

That's a bold and premature statement IMO, how many AI winters have there been before this one ?

I'm not even saying you're wrong, but to assert it with such confidence sounds like crypto bro-nanigans.

i would argue that it's evolutionary rather than revolutionary, but that's subjective i suppose.

I’ll never understand the LLM hate on lemmy.

Speaking for me personally i don't hate LLM's, i dislike the confidence with which they are being pushed and the lack of acknowledgement of their very real and IMO very important limitations.

You get statements like

"And most devs I know use it everyday"

Without context, and that feeds into the general propaganda feel of the sentiment, because people who don't actually use them or don't understand the implied context hear "LLM's can do all the things, all the professional devs are using it all day".

I understand it's not on you to police peoples impressions, but trying to add actual context to those statements isn't hate, it's prudence.

Then again, that's subjective too.
