I wonder how society will work to now go back to doing everything with paper and pencil, given how you can barely stop the machine from claiming that there are 5 R's in strarwrberry or that 1+1= sorry but you need to upgrade to our premium package in order to continue using your quota of tokens...

I mean obviously we here all use ~~Arch btw~~ Linux (yup, each and every one, no exceptions allowed, dontchaknow? 😜), but if e.g. your bank uses Windoze then when Microdick decides to replace their calculator with a SAS LLM app - and ban all alternative computation apps from their store (whatever its called) - then that will impact you as a customer?

Just like computers used to work fine offline, before MS claimed that it was outright mandatory to connect to the internet. LLMs today are simply a new round in the same old game.
