I confess to finding it it a little frustrating when I'm accused of being an "LLM shill" or "breathlessly proselytizing" while my ai+ethics tag has 121 posts and counting https://simonwillison.net/tags/ai+ethics/

(To be fair here, I produce such a high volume of content that it's understandable when people evaluate my work based on a single post without taking the breadth of my coverage into account)

@simon To be honest, the volume you produce about LLMs comes off as a bit obsessive in a way that can be easy to associate with LLM shilling (and Crypto before it). I’ve read enough of your writing on the topic to recognize that you are far more clear-eyed on the subject than the real shills, but it would be hard to come away with that impression without giving you the benefit of the doubt first. We’re not used to recognizing critical obsession.
