    If we took all of the recorded works of this man who hated the automobile, train an LLM from them, and ask it what it thought of AI, the result would be obscene twice. Once for the project itself and once for the sentiments it would express. If it chose a metaphor from middle earth it would probably be a palantír, and would not appreciate the joke of having become one.

      And yet he owned a motor car, and enjoyed fast driving. Humans are complex.
