What you’ve done in your life time can eventually be condensed into information 

This information can be erased, artifacts of your actions destroyed over the course of history - the memory of you, gone

Now imagine entire civilizations, collections of folks could be removed from the history this way - crazy

LLMs will compress each individual into latent space and will immortalize every mind by posting that data onchain into block space

But if all digital artifacts were destroyed, and we all moved away from using blockchains in the next 10,000 years, (or even think about the next 1 million years) it’s highly unlikely we will even have blockchains or LLMs then, weird historical artifacts from the past, it will be

Indeed. And even if we end up inventing an incredibly resilient material for data storage that lasts millions of years, if conscious beings roaming our solar system that would be capable of comprehending our existence are unable to decode the data stored there, nor have the toolset to do so, it might as welll be lost.

Or give it enough time, like millions, even billions of years, we won’t have blockchains or LLMs - maybe not even recognizable versions of us either

Only as far as the digital infrastructure that hosts the LLMs can persist. A heavy solar flare can quickly wipe all of that from existence too.
