It's anecdotal but I have found that the people who are "skeptical" (to use your word) about generative AI often turn out to be financially dependent on something that generative AI can do.
That it to say, they're worried it will replace them at their job and so they very much want it to fail.
You have to have some skin in the game for that kind of cognitive dissonance. I think some are even resentful they can't understand it. A 21st century cotton gin.
