in some cases it technically does. if we shut down every single AI data center as we should, the industrialists would call that a Luddite primitivist counter-revolution.

I don't necessarily agree that we need to stop printing books but if all the industrial printing presses were erased from existence, we wouldn't lose much. the knowledge of printing wouldn't go away but we'd "regress" to a state where you can't treat books as a commodity anymore. you either pirate the PDF from your comrades or ask one of them to print a copy at your local DIY space.
