Grow up? I'm pushing fifty with 30 years specifically working in IT.
If your stance is
You're right on track to be that 70 year old raising his cane in the air ranting about the useless AI stuff going on and now you can't figure out how to get our social security check because it uses that new AI based system.
current AI and its applications? It absolutely is a nothingburger, and that is entirely due to the way it's being marketed and applied. I don't know if you're old enough to remember the dotcom crash, but this is literally history repeating itself. An idea with the capacity to revolutionise the world being rushed through by dickheads who just want moneymoneymoney that applied it in the stupidest ways possible, churning vaporware and moon farts as concepts then when reality came knocking the whole thing fell over.

The bubble will eventually burst, but LLMs are not going away. The can of worms has already been opened. Either embrace them, or get left behind.
no shit buddy, but the whole idea that "Hurrr if you don't love LLMs you're an idiot" is a reductive statement reducing a complex matter to stupid tribalism.
For the record my stance triggering this large comment chain was based off what OP wrote about AI.
I never said you had to like it or not liking it makes you an idiot.
If you want to say I was calling people who say
Are idiots, I'll accept that accusation.
