Can you provide reasons other than "he's wrong"? There is no other technology that compresses so my knowledge into such a small space. A 24 GB diffusion model can generate a good approximation of any human relevant image from a description. Ask it to generate an image of the Tivoli fountain and it will do an impressive job. You can't use it as a map, but it gives an excellent representation.

Finally I don't think there are "dangerous ways" to think of any technology. This is just another tool.
