Is it fair to compare the social impact of LLMs and GenAI to the radium fad of just 100 years ago? Is it fair to call them both hazards to mental and physical health alike?

Sure, the former inflicts mental harm while the latter inflicted physical harm, but enough harm to one causes the other to suffer and wither as well. And like the radium fad before, the people today's LLM/GenAI fad harms include those who know about and try to avoid its dangers.
