I also hate the term AI.
And I'm not sure about the actual code either.

I had an idea for a SciFi story I wanted to write where a person's consciousness is uploaded into a computer. Now I can't even trito it without feeling gross because LLMs ruined everything for me, even AI scifi.

In fairness, uploading consciousness into a computer is a pretty old sci-fi trope so it would have been derivative even before the AI bubble. That being said, tropes are tropes for a reason, don't let shitty real life "AI" stop you from writing that story. Just don't call use the term artificial intelligence and you're good
