“I fear the car is the predictive historical model [for LLMs]: small wins for individuals + huge wins for a handful → massive externalities and collective action problems that will take generations to fix.” – @luis_in_briefLuis Villa

The language of “wins” aside, this is the most correct take. IMO, the nigh-Butlerian inability to concede that LLMs might deliver *any* gains of *any* scale for *any* party we so often see here impedes both analytic clarity & credibility with low-engagement interlocutors.
