Alan Watts Predicted LLM Usage in 1951

While reading Alan Watts' book The Wisdom of Insecurity (published in 1951), I noticed that he predicted the rise of something akin to large language models with eerie accuracy.

It is interesting to me that the same feeling of societal dread (the first chapter is called "The Age of Anxiety") is still relevant 75 years later, with the very issue that Watts predicted on p. 69 being front and center in our news cycles.
