AI isn't 'good' or 'bad', and treating it as binary is unhealthy
Quote
And when you have incredible success with it. It makes you defensive. about negativity towards it. And then when you have nothing but negative experiences with it. it makes you defensive against the people who are having success. It's like it's got to be binary.

Summary
People who've had great success with AI get defensive about criticism, and people buried in corporate AI slop get defensive against the success stories. Dave argues that the binary is unhealthy for any technology. In ten years AI will fade into ordinary tooling, and the verifiable uses like coding and creative work will be what remains.
