Wow, I hadn't made that connection. We should somehow bundle a current state-of-the-art LLM in a timecapsule right now, and maybe another one every decade.

If, a thousand years from now future historians need to study our time, they can just ask the LLM.

There's a SF story in there somewhere.

That would be an incredible modern analogue to the Arecibo message or Golden Record. Imagine being on the receiving end of such an artifact and not knowing how to operate it and being worried about breaking it.

Makes you also wonder if the future of long-range communication between planets or galaxies would involve LLM-based compression, embeddings, etc.

We definitely need to fix the hallucination problem though, or a receiving civilization might be extremely confused about our nature.
