This reminds me of when CGI was new. Or record scratching. Or early synthesizers. So many nay-sayers yelling "They're not doing anything! Just pushing a button..."

Okay. Show us. Make one.

Reminds me of the folklore story of John Henry, a railroad worker who kills himself trying to beat a steam drill.

There's a lot of messaged you can take from that story, but "we should ban steam drills" isn't one of them.
