Why do you bother with all this discussion? Like, I get it the first x times for some low x, it's fun to have the discussion. But after a while, aren't you just tired of the people who keep pushing back? You are right, they are wrong. It's obvious to anyone who has put the effort in.
It's also useful for figuring out what I think and how best to express that. Sometimes I get really great replies too - I compared ethical LLM objections to veganism today on Lobste.rs and got a superb reply explaining why the comparison doesn't hold: https://lobste.rs/s/cmsfbu/don_t_fall_into_anti_ai_hype#c_oc...

Trying to have a discussion with people who aren't actually interested in being convinced is exhausting. Simon has a lot more patience than I do.
It's a poorly considered hobby.

I like debate as much as the next guy(almost). Your patience is either admirable or crazy, I'm not sure which.
Neither am I!
