It is an amazing technology and like crypto/blockchain it is nerdy to understand how it works and play with it. I think there are two things at stake here:

1. Some people are just uncomfortable with it because it “could” replace their jobs.

2. Some people are warning that the ecosystem bubble is significantly out of proportions. They are right and having the whole stock market, companies and US economy attached to LLMs is just down right irresponsible.

What jobs are seriously at risk of being totally replaced by LLM's? Even in things like copywriting and natural language translation, which is somewhat of a natural "best case" for the underlying tech, their output is quite sub par compared to the average human's.
