markk observes that AI fandom has become incredibly tribal — OpenAI fans, Grok fans, Claude fans and more, with some so invested in their team that they genuinely hate the others, increasingly like football fandom. He argues that with a common enemy in "AI haters," people who actually want AI to advance should remember they're ultimately on the same side, and can go back to fighting over which model is best later.
