An AI enthusiast having a breathless and predictive position on the future of the technology? No way! It's almost like Wall Street is about to sour on the whole stack and there is a concerted effort to artificially push these views into the conversation to get people on board.

Then again, I'm a known crank and aggressive cynic, but you never really see any gathered data backing these points up.

Could you back up your assertion that Willy Tarreau — who used to maintain the Linux kernel — is “an AI enthusiast”? I can’t find anything about it.

Sort of a tautology to just assert that someone saying good things about AI is an AI enthusiast and therefore their opinion should be dismissed. He also happens to have been a kernel maintainer, his experience as he's describing it should count for something.
