    I don’t really know for assembly line and the atomic bomb, but for internet and AI the first thing we did is porn.

        You sigh, but… Porn is the choice of the bonobo, not the chimpanzee, no?

        Besides, the atomic bomb isn’t really a fair comparison - we set up a whole crash program in wartime to figure out how to make a big weapon, of course we used it as a weapon first!
