  The layer of disassociation is present w/ humans speaking different languages too though, right? My point is that once we can understand each other, we are all building on what already exists

  they are appropriating what already existed and saying it in another way.

  Isn't this humanity in a nutshell? Standing on the shoulders of Giants, etc.

  I quit my job to start the year and I'm currently doing a sabbatical year. I'm apathetic about the idea of eventually honing in on a specialty to learn when I re-enter the workforce because I'm unsure how sustainable the skills I learn will be in demand for.

  The only thing I can think of is expanding my base level understanding of LLMs. My bet is that they will become the foundation with which future projects are launched in the same way that elementary school is the foundation for basic reading/writing skills.

  I think the issue is that you are hypothesizing what you think you'd like, while ignoring all the real life examples that show things can go astray. For example, you talk about the benefits of not having a million little kings w/o acknowledging that the one kingmaker can make the head of groceries his inept brother-in-law who pockets half of the funds.

  Instead of responding to people why you like totalitarianism, how about you show reference a historical example that was beneficial to a society?

  Thanks for linking! Currently using OpenBoard but not a fan of the lack of swipe. FlorisBoard is en route to swipe but it's still very much in beta (but feels like alpha)
