I think that the tribalism is one sided.

On one side you have people who know how to build deep nn saying one thing, and on the other there seems to be people who don’t even know what tanh is and are very sure of their “strong” opinions.

Do you have an example of someone who actually knows how LLMs work who has a tribalistic view?

It's weird though, the critics of LLMs have very good points, usually very reasonable but when they share them they get downvoted and criticized like someone who was critical of NFTs in 2022.

I wonder why that is, and what it portends regarding the future of that "tribe"
