It's a fine sentiment. The irony is that an echo chamber is exactly what gets created when debate is conducted in bad faith.
For instance when the OP simply asked for practical uses of AI in reading the immediate response wasn't a contribution to the topic but a blanket, off-topic dismissal.
When another user suggested that these repeated, broad condemnations might be better in their own dedicated thread their position was misrepresented as them wanting zero alternate opinions and a forum run like a 'dictatorship'. That’s a classic straw man argument, not a discussion.
And when challenged directly resorting to personal attacks, calling another member a sycophant.
That's the behaviour that kills a conversation. It's not the presence of disagreement that creates an echo chamber. It's the refusal to engage honestly with what others are actually saying.
