It's funny, I made the same analogy the other day: https://twitter.com/gramofdata/status/1736838023940112523

I think something interesting to note is that once we stopped atmospheric nuclear testing steel radiation levels went back down and are almost at normal background levels. So maybe the same thing will happen if we stop using GenAI.

It was quite limited set of entities that did atmospheric nuclear testing. Same cannot be said about LMMs.

Mine post-apocalyptic scenario I half-jokingly predicted some 5-10 years ago was that all general-purpose computing hardware, which is common and relatively cheap now will be abandoned and possibly outlawed in the end. People will use non-rootable thin clients to access Amazon, which will have general-purpose hardware, but it will be heavily audited by government entities.
