  • it's a movie about (only in part but imo motivated by) Spike Jonze's break up with Sofia Coppola. It's neither positive or negative about AI per se. AI is a narrative vehicle for the sense of falling in love, growing apart, being left behind, and the aftermath of that break up. At the end, the AI lovingly says goodbye and leaves humanity behind.

  • s'alright, tho. It was always a cynical marketing strat to convert hyper-online nerd anxiety into investor hype. may want to check on Big Yud. Idk if anyone has heard from him since his Time Mag article coming onto a year old now, not that I tried.

    Some of the risks the team worked on included "misuse, economic disruption, disinformation, bias and discrimination, addiction, and overreliance."

    Conspicuous lack of grey goo or hyper-persuasive brainhacking. Still really good at being confidently wrong about basic shit!

    So I broke up with Alice over a long conversation that included an hour-long primer on evolutionary psychology in which I explained how natural selection had built me to be attracted to certain features that she lacked. I thought she would appreciate this because she had previously expressed admiration for detailed honesty. Now I realize that there's hardly a more damaging way to break up with someone. She asked that I kindly never speak to her again, and I can't blame her.

    Fuck. He figured it all out.
