Why would anyone expect "nuance" from a generative AI? It doesn't have nuance, it's not an AGI, it doesn't have EQ or sociological knowledge. This is like that complaint about LLMs being "warlike" when they were quizzed about military scenarios. It's like getting upset that the clunking of your photocopier clashes with the peaceful picture you asked it to copy

Why shouldn't we expect more and better out of the technologies that we use? Seems like a very reactionary way of looking at the world

I DO expect better use from new technologies. I don't expect technologies to do things that they cannot. I'm not saying it's unreasonable to expect better technology I'm saying that expecting human qualities from an LLM is a category error
