I find it interesting that there is something a person could say, by implying you have been duped, that could offend you. Does it cause in you a subjective feeling of offense, of being offended? Or are you saying it is *objectively* offensive to say or imply that a group of people have been scammed? (As you know, I use Whisper so I do know ML tools are useful, btw.)

 @cb86276c @2561ebcb It's a pretty mild effect, I'm not particularly offended - I just wanted to point out that if someone says "LLMs are useless" there's an implication they may not have considered which is "anyone who thinks they are useful is deluding themselves"
