That's a good point, I am surprised by the amount of people who don't seem to care if something is true as long as it's "entertaining". It's probably a similar mindset to enjoying reality TV or pro wrestling?
That all said I do love how in everyone's free time they're all growing and relaxing in healthy ways like sports, painting, learning an instrument or putting on a play.
We seem to agree that actually eating real food at a greasy spoon is preferable to reading a description of the dining experience offered at the Ritz. But your replies give me the impression we disagree?
I don't have a ton of praise for PIC Season 1, but I found disturbing the number of people we would see on /r/StarTrek saying the problem with it was that the synths weren't discriminated against enough.
Exactly! Why go to the first restaurant (video) at all if you don't like the experience? You're really going to wait outside the door of the first one asking the people leaving what the food tastes like? How is that better than the restaurant (videos) you do like?
A menu is not a creative work it's a means to convey information. Veritasium is not reading wikipedia articles on screen, he's creating an original work.
Listen I am not criticizing how you choose to enjoy your time I just find the entire concept of finding the experience of reading a text summary to be more to be more rewarding than experiencing the thing itself to be alien.
when I read comments like these it makes me realize that maybe all the money flowing to OpenAI isn't folly and there really are people out there trying to tl;dr their own lives
