I hate this timeline

What if the headline read: "Horseless carriages are crippling stable owners and farriers"

Would you still hate this timeline?

"Horseless carriages driven around cities accelerate climatic problems"

"City growth caused by mass adoption of personal horseless carriages makes pedestrians unable to get anywhere"

So, yea, that would still be a problem

Turns out walkable cities do in fact exist despite those countries phasing out said horseless carriages.

This is not equivalent. LLMs are not new tools, they're just the latest parlor trick of old tools. It has more to do with crypto and NFTs than with cars. And with the confidence of hindsight, cars (indirectly via the combustion engine and fossil fuels) absolutely destroyed the planet with anthropogenic climate change. We have every reason to hate this timeline.
