This is an extremely convenient view for the imperial central planners, but I dissent. Recursive grammars are a universal property of human language; not something that has to be manufactured at the expense of local communities' access to water. Of course, I am not expecting anything else to be expressed - you're not consciously biased, but the process of HN commenting selects for a person with those views. The supremacy of pushdown automatons - purely hypothetical constructs distinguished only by their capacity to consume a literally infinite quantity of our natural resources - over finite state machines, a view promulgated by the same media outlets that have a vested interest in exploiting it to redefine the relationship between journalistic labor and capital - is nothing compared to my personal ability to recall incidents from the past 80 years of Z magazine. The details are covered in my book about generative AI, "Manufacturing Content."
