That’s not the reality of real industrial displacements. Rust belt towns in the US and coal towns in Britain are miserable places - their populations didn’t adapt when the industries that employed 90% percent of their working population disappeared, the quality of life in these areas just plummeted.
People often adapt when big changes come to their industries. They don’t adapt when their entire livelihoods disappear. LLMs look to have the potential to do this not just to a segment of one part of the economy in some regions, but to the entire knowledge economy the world over.
