Sick burn that WSJ opinion column refers to Weiss (correctly) as a "journalistic mouthpiece" & not as a "journalist"...

Highly motivated & fervent defenders of LLMs who don't have anything to do with their development, don't know anything whatsoever about how they work, and who will never benefit from their existence are an interesting sociological & psychological phenomenon.

This is a lovely essay & nicely illustrates that the way to get academics/educators off LLMs isn't by shrieking abt how horrible they are in general, but by showing how pathetically deficient they are at the core things we value.
