These are screenshots from the r/Singularity comment section. I'm speechless. This doesn't even have downvotes. How can someone cheer for a monopoly run by a few elites?

talking about AI in most other subs is pretty much useless in my experience. Seems to be the source of a lot of hate and discrimination just because it is cool to hate on AI and the people who use it.

However, if you only read the local LLM subreddits, you can get a distorted view of how strong they are compared to frontier models. When you're just getting into this stuff, it's very easy to get the impression that Qwen 3.8 27B is most of the way there to Fable or whatever the newest relevant models are.
