I suspect people don't particularly hate or despise LLMs per se. They're probably reacting mostly to "tech industry" boom-bust bullsh*tter/guru culture. Especially since the cycles seem to burn increasingly hotter and brighter the less actual, practical value they provide. Which is supremely annoying when the second-order effect is having all the oxygen (e.g. capital) sucked out of the room for pretty much anything else.
