Can we stop making analogies like this. It’s so bizarre. The circumstances around each invention are completely different. To always reference the conditions of some past technology is to be stuck in this bizarre form of thinking.
A few days ago some poster tried to compare denying LLM’s to being a naysayer in Gallileos time. Is this all we can do? Make references to past events and fail to evaluate the present properly?
Of course every case of anything is different in detail. On the other hand, identifying patterns is often useful in understanding human reactions to change. Do you disagree with this, or do you think there is something special about inventions?
My analysis here is that the young person in question appeared to focus only on current utility. You have not yet explained why you say it is a failed analysis of why that response may seem surprising.
