Some people have strong negative priors toward AI in general.
When the GPT-3 API first came out, I built a little chatbot program to show my friends/family. Two people (out of maybe 15) flat out refused to put in a message because they just didn’t like the idea of talking to an AI.
I think it’s more of an instinctual reaction than something thought through. There’s probably a deeper psychological explanation, but I don’t want to speculate.
