I am by nature strongly suspicious of LLMs. Most of the code they write for me is crap. I don't like them much or use them much, though I do think they'll advance enough to be highly useful for me with time.

With that said, Marcus is an idiot who has no place in the discourse. His presence just drowns out substantive or useful remarks. Everything he writes is just hyperbole-infested red meat for anyone who is to any extent anti-AI. It's "respectability laundering": they point to him as a source, thus holding him up as a valid or quality source.
