I upvote naysayers comments there as I don't think votes should be used to indicate (dis)agreement at least not without commenting why, more an indication that this is a useful thing to discuss. So if you see my comments not getting votes while every other one has a bump, that's my vote on them :)

It's kind of funny, I posted this here and there at similar times. Expected to be spam flagged there due to the anti-AI brigade, but my submission here was the one that actually got hit (likely because I disclosed AI use in the post body is my guess).

Same here. Alas, it's the zeitgeist that everything runs along tribal or political lines these days, but it doesn't have to be that way.

I like seeing different points of view, and maybe controversial topics should be discussed () more than others, not less.

and discussed means fact-based, civil discourse, not piling on
