> yeah, ask people what they think of LLM's/AI and a majority are split between either disliking it or fearing it or maybe both.

> Nobody likes it and everyone wants to use it.
That only has contradiction vibes if you don't think about it too much. Even accepting your all statements as facts, none of them support your conclusion without serious misunderstandings.
Like isn't it obvious that a person downloading a phone app doesn't mean they like it? Or that a high ranking on an app store doesn't mean even a large plurality of people have downloaded it?
I totally agree that just because everyone gets an app it doesn't mean they like it. Or that because an app is popular it doesn't mean that a majority of people have installed it.
Here's the thing. I'm also willing to believe that people are happy to say they don't like something that they are happy to use. I'm even willing to believe that people have reasons to say they don't like something that they actually do in fact like.

You seem to be modeling "like" over-simplistically.
Someone can like having ChatGPT give a quick answer to a question they don't really care about, but hate how it has been used to pollute their feed with slop, and hate AI's overall effects on society even while appreciating it in some small ways.
