Grok 4.20 Beta: TL;DR: An earlier transistor (1920) would accelerate electronics by ~20–25 years. WWII ends sooner with superior Allied signals intelligence, radar, and computing. The Cold War becomes more dangerous and economically lopsided. The space race is won earlier and more decisively by the US.

Mistral Small Creative: The hypothetical invention of the transistor in 1920—nearly three decades before its actual discovery by Bell Labs in 1947—would have triggered a cascade of technological, economic, and geopolitical disruptions with profound second- and third-order effects.
