some interesting ideas but something feels off with the language used.

    LLM? Any verbose, struggling to focus article now looks generated rather than the work of somebody with better ideas than technique. Or they’re being paid by the word. I wonder whether there is a jargon problem with the word “great”…. These’s no way Trump or Cameron would be considered “great” but the world changed through their direct actions. One could argue that they just happen to be there when underlying forces interact and that the lone actor model of history is naive. Many of us have written the “was Hitler inevitable” paper at uni and elsewhere. His particular phobias were extensive, but that time and place was ripe for such rule to appear.

      The variables in history seem to be technology and population. There are various repetitions of the Tower of Babel as individuals come and go. Or, instead of analysis, we could nail Jell-O to the wall.

      FWIW it is from 2024. LLM tells evolve quickly, so you’d want to be looking for the ones of that timeframe.
