And I say I don't even know this person and he should just stfu and leave those kids alone.

He's the CEO of Nvidia one of the largest GPU manufacturers in the world and also a trillion dollar company.

Good for him. I like Nvidia and use one, but I have the rest of his company to thank for that.

I think for me it was a combination of:

< Name of person I don't know > says < big unhinged sweeping generalization > for < reason that makes no sense to anyone in the field >

My first instinct is not to click stuff like this altogether. I also think that anyone trying to preach what kids should or shouldn't do is already in the wrong automatically by assuming they have any say in this without a degree in pedagogy.

He’s also obviously biased since the more people use LLMs and the like the more money he gets.

It’s a bit like “lions think gazelles should be kept in their enclosure”.
