1. Do frontier lab LLMs make your rent cheaper? Groceries? Healthcare?

2. Do LLMs reduce the loneliness epidemic?

3. Do they reduce population aging in almost all counties around the world?

4. Do they reduce political polarization?

5. Do they bolster democracies?

6. Do they decelerate climate change and general environmental destruction?

7. Do they accelerate sustainability and the circular economy (not circular financing!)?

8. Do they reduce the workweek and give people more free time for family and hobbies?

Etc, etc.

I would hold off on calling anything a "superpower" unless it solves the hard problems in life. Heck, computers and even the internet barely score better than LLMs when measured against the important things in life.
