    Also, the industrial revolution fucked over a lot of people during the transition period so even if it was an accurate comparison it’s rather callous to celebrate it.

      This is precisely why I am suspicious of any and all “disruptive” technologies.

      If this technology is so disruptive that it will generate unparalleled wealth for society, then that’s enough wealth that you can afford to keep paying the people about to get displaced and their livelihood destroyed. Don’t want to do this? Fuck your “disruption”.

      (And if it’s like LLMs, it won’t be positively disruptive in any light. It’s just a Ponzi scheme for the highest stakes ever.)

      it did have a value in the end, but LLM only just fucks over people and pollutes the planet more aggressively.
