The loss of AI would barely be noticable for the average person. A bunch of developers would have a bad day trying to remove all that integration they were forced by management to add, but beyond that, people would move on.

Removing the Internet as a whole at this stage would be basically impossible without halting pretty much every economic force on the planet, I think. The Internet acts as the backbone of pretty much everything related to monetary transactions or logistics in general.

I'd say if we were to increase our resilience in an analogue world, we should start now while those who lived the analogue era are still alive and functional. Otherwise, we'll see ourselves heavily dependent on power and data as long as modern civilisation exists.

This is wildly incorrect. If by AI you mean exclusively modern LLMs, then it would effectively halt quite a lot of modern research, including virology, epidemiology, physics, materials sciences, and many more.

If by AI you mean the actual definition of AI, then you can say goodbye to the Internet as we know it today. Translation services, fraud protection, GPS, 99.9% of all software development, etc. nobody had a problem with AI ~5 years ago. Those exact same algorithms are now flagged as evil because people misunderstand what they're even complaining about.

The impossibility of removing the Internet is identical to the impossibility of removing AI. Or, if you use the incorrect term to mean LLMs exclusively, then say goodbye to quite a lot of critical modern research. I hope you don't like antibiotics, because there was a recent breakthrough that used Evo 1 and Evo 2, both LLMs trained on genome data.

Yep, and after IOT stuff even some people homes would have plenty of problems
