I would say this might be similar to someone who has never played an instrument, for the example, let's say a guitar, messing around with it for a few hours for a few days and determining because they can't play it, the guitar doesn't sound very good at all.

I have seen and heard this "Artificial Yes, Intelligent, No" sentiment a few times over the years.
And when I've challenged such folks to a "You vs AI" battle of the minds, they and I both know they wouldn't stand a chance against an AI bot in the same way they wouldn't stand a chance in an earth moving competition with a bulldozer.

Anti-technology and folks that cannot understand technology have always been with us.

After all:
"If man were made to fly, he would have been born with wings"
"The earth is not a globe."
"There is no reason anyone would want a computer in their home."
“There’s no chance that the iPhone is going to get any significant market share. No chance.”

For me there’s no better place in the band than to have one leg in the harmony world and the other in the percussive. Thank you Paul Tutmarc and Leo Fender.
