I definitely don't deny that LLM addiction exists, but attempting to paint literally everyone that uses LLMs and thinks they are useful, interesting, or effective as addicted or falling for confidence or persuasion tricks is what I take issue with.

Interesting how you've painted everyone who uses LLMs and LLM addicts the same color to steelman your argument.

Did he do so? I read his comment as a sad take on the situation when one realizes that one is talking to a machine instead of (directly) to another person.

In my opinion, to participate in discussion through LLM is a sign of excessive LLM use. Which can be a sign of LLM addiction.
