I've noticed something around AI discussions that I find more interesting than the usual debate about whether AI itself is good or bad.

Sometimes people don't just criticize AI. They start judging the people who use it.

Especially when someone uses AI creatively, emotionally, socially, or simply says that it has become meaningful to them, reactions can get surprisingly personal. People get called stupid, delusional, lazy, pathetic, or worse.

And I think that can genuinely hurt.

So I'm curious: Why do you think dislike or fear of AI gets projected onto the people who use it?

Have you ever experienced that yourself?
And why do you think certain kinds of AI use trigger much stronger reactions than others?
