I was speaking in response to most of the general "pervasive negative attitudes" mentioned, not you specifically. Although I'm curious where you viewed generative AI content repeatedly 5 years ago; it was effectively non-existent outside research circles then.
If I recall correctly, that was about the time that Google started demoing its generative AI "deepmind" - a particular demo of a frog comes to mind. The commonality of AI content has certainly increased since then, I didn't mean to imply it was commonplace back then.
