The "AI Ick" seems to be everywhere. People are more eager to judge than to take the time to actually review anything, and will just say it's AI-generated. It's become an easy, low-effort criticism.
Social media seems to have warped behavior patterns. You quoted people seeing AI content more on social media than anything. People's addiction to social media is leading to skimming or continuously scrolling of content, assuming it's AI-generated because they can't concentrate long enough to actually read it, and then move on or continue the pattern of behavior that they are hypnotized by.
There's just a rush to give an opinion. The em dash is a criticism I have seen on LinkedIn a lot. But also, this behavior of calling people out instead of discussing anything is directly linked to social media and constant scrolling.
Social media and the platforms are the problem. Corporations need users to have behaviors that drive their profits. It's the corporations, not the tools!
Corps are starting to use the idea that ads are human-made when it was made by AI. People are easily marketed to and fall into the traps regardless.
Corporations take away and kill creativity and force effort.
AI is not going to take away Human Creativity or Effort; it will enhance it and give access to others. Humans who take the time and effort to be creative will always be; the others will continue down the road they are headed.
In "The Conquest of Happiness", Bertrand Russell wrote that, all else being equal, the man who enjoys eating strawberries has a happier life than the man who dislikes strawberries.
I feel that way about AI haters like the author. She spends lots of time feeling "disgust", "skin crawling", "the ick". Meanwhile people who are fine with AI are feeling happy emotions. There's so much to look forward to!
Just seems like a glass half full/half empty thing.

Believe it or not, prefrontal lobotomies were once considered a promising procedure for the treatment of psychiatric disorders.
