That's called the black swan fallacy. "I've never personally seen it, therefore it's not real." That just sounds like cope and projection. You feel like this "loud minority" is preventing you from being so open about your love of AI, and so you pretend like everyone is secretly on your side.
If you were to get specific, people are generally receptive to very specific use cases, like tailor-made models for assisting medical diagnosis or security analysis of code. What people almost universally hate is the slop produced by generative AI, particularly in creative niches where what these machines produce isn't art but a pale shade of it. Yet, these billionaires keep trying to shove GenAI down everyone's throats at every turn, all the while ruining hobbies (see the RAM/SSD supply chain), livelihoods, health, rights (see Palantir; see who owns these tools), and the planet.
So yeah, if you don't have a visceral reaction to someone shilling AI, I don't believe you're really that far left. The tools that broadly exist are not the tools of nor for the befit of the people.
This is a great point. They're vague concepts, used as shorthand to communicate someone's philosophies in very broad strokes. They're not philosophies or even true political movements in and of themselves.
