Drama: Steve S calls Jack Cheng's demo fake, danshipper pushes back hard
danshipper · x · 2026-09-19
Steve S (@Steve8708) posted "Jev is awesome but for the love of god please STOP posting fake demos," apparently targeting @jackcheng's demo. danshipper quote-replied in defense: while X does have over-the-top AI demos, calling Jack Cheng's work "fake" is sad — he's one of the smartest, most intellectually honest, craft-focused people he's worked with, and the demo is real and a peek into the future.
A notable AI-community drama about demo authenticity and performative hype culture.
