People who aren't programmers, haven't studied computer science, and don't understand LLMs are much more impressed by LLMs.
That's true of any technology. As someone who is a programmer, has studied computer science, and does understand LLMs, this represents a massive leap in capability. Is it AGI? No. Is it a potential paradigm shift? Yes. This isn't pure hype like Crypto was, there is a core of utility here.
Crypto was never pure hype either. Decentralized currency is an important thing to have, it's just shitty it turned into some investment speculative asset rather than a way to buy drugs online without the glowies looking
Crypto solves a few theoretical problems and creates a few real ones
Yeah I studied CS and work in IT Ops, I'm not claiming this shit is Cortana from Halo, but it's also not NFTs. If you can't see the value you haven't used it for anything serious, cause it's taking jobs left and right.
In my experience it's the opposite, but the emotional reaction isn't so much being impressed as being afraid and claiming it's just all plagiarism
