@mitsuhiko @pythonbynight seen from the other side, you set the conversation in terms that are way too broad for what you actually want to talk about and frankly read as a taunt on a hot topic, then complain that the conversation doesn't flow the way you assumed everyone would agree on (and I fail to imagine what you expected with such a starter).
"Massively against AI" is a mischaracterization of a variety of more nuanced and precise positions, which are only tangentially related to AI.

Is this platform still massively against AI or has it moved more towards acceptance? -

I call BS. Not being precise enough is you making up a strawman to spar with. Bayesian spam classifiers and OCR can be argued to be "a subset of AI" too, but you'll hardly find the same pushback against it.The wide-spread use of GenAI, be it stable diffusion or LLMs, has unique characteristics that are undesirable in how they are pushed to shape the future of society as well as being extremely resource intensive for an arguably shitty ROI and flaky economics.
