Agreed. When cloudflare (ugh, aka the internet) goes down, we can't access information to think and work through. ("the fuel" in some metaphor)

But what about when LLMs go down and a good chunk of a whole generation won't even know how to think, when the remote system goes down? (Is the ability to think "the engine" of self and agency in this metaphor?)

We are building a wildly irresponsible context to exist in.

E. M. Forster would like a word.
