    I am amused that of all innovations available, you are going 250 years back to a very basic machine. Next you’ll be comparing LLMs to the concept of sand casting copper ax blade being better than knapping a rock into a hamd ax.

    Not something like how Email, SMS and Instant messaging have almost completely replaced fax and telephone calls.

      I used the spinning jenny because it is a classic example of a new technology that workers hated at the time and actively tried to destroy but the descendants of which are now considered the standard way to produce threads.

      It wasn’t a simple machine back then, it was revolutionary.
