    The industrial revolution lasted almost 100 years, but we generally clump all of those advancements in one big group.

    In 2100, those 40 years won’t mean a thing.

      2100 noone will be around to ask the question more like it.

          Presumably Lord Nikon thinks there won’t be any humans left at that time.

            This is correct and I hope I am wrong

              There will be humans around, but there will probably be far fewer of them. We are excellent survivors.

      I’ll have to wait and see

      I’m young enough that I will probably still be around as we approach 2100.

      that seems like a bit different than ‘the same innovation’ implied by op

      it would be like conflating the invention of the ICE with space travel as ‘the same innovation’. id argue that would never happen, and neither would ‘the internet’ and ‘LLMs’
