This metaphor does fall apart somewhat when you consider that farm tractors are not made from farmhand muscle fibers, whereas LLMs are in fact made out the stuff they’re rapidly replacing.
No, but I think you could tell a sufficiently compelling allegorical / metaphorical story about how farm tractors, in destroying the livelihood of farmhands, might as well have pried their muscle fibres out of their live bodies.
For sure. No, there's a tragically awful irony in the fact that the clankers run entirely on the (unpaid for) intellectual output and cognitive labour of humanity, white-collar professionals, academics, specialists and creatives, yet the idea is that these people are supposed to be obsoleted by the clankers.
