oh come on, a paid shill?

Simon is very fascinated by AI and at times he can be a little too optimistic but he is generally balanced and his perspective evolves over time which can be seen in his writing.

Nerd who loves nerd things a little too much? Sure. Paid shill by Big LLM? Nah.

The issue is he’s not actually balanced at all. I’ve never seen him say anything negative about an AI product.

Yes, a paid shill. You can find a clear point in time where he shifted from sceptic to 1000% fully onboard non-stop praise, with no reason.
