But it’s worth being careful - you could’ve said the same thing 3 years ago about NFTs. They were taking off and people made very convincing arguments about how it was the future of concert tickets, and eventually commerce in general.

If we started writing lots of laws around NFTs, it would just be a bunch of pointless (at best), or actively harmful laws.

Nobody cares about NFTs today, but there were genuinely good ideas about how they’d change commerce being spouted by a small group of people.

People can say “this is the future” while most people dismiss them, and honestly the people predicting tectonic shifts are usually wrong.

I don’t think that the current LLM craze is headed for the same destiny as NFTs, but I don’t think that the “LLM is the new world order” crowd is necessarily more likely to be correct just because they’re visionaries.
