The "nerds" are having their say and arguing it out, mostly outside of the public view but the questions are too nuanced or technical for a general audience.

I'm not sure I see how the hype intrudes on that so much?

It seems like you have a bone to pick and it's about the attention being on Musk/Altman/etc. but I'm still not sure that "self-serving media pollution" is having that much of an impact on the people on the ground? What am I missing, exactly?




My comment was about wanting to see more (nerds) -> (public) communication, not about anything (public) -> (nerds). I understand they're not good at it, it was just an idealistic lament.

My bone to pick with Musk and Altman and their ilk is their damage to public discourse, not that they're getting attention per se. Whether that public discourse damage really matters is its own conversation.
