Well, the 'internet' is not necessarily that relevant in the grand scheme of things.

Its relevance lay more in shaping our diverse perception of reality than in reality itself.

Yeah, not judging either.

Looking at the pictures, design-wise, I’m almost tempted to ask: “what was the prompt?”.

Posting this out of curiosity. All the guests here have good points; however, they are also biased, each in their own way. But they are doing an important job in the discussion around AI, in particular by debunking the prominent anthropomorphising discourse. This is software: companies should be responsible for their products, humanity is not doomed, and the singularity is essentially BS.

Also interesting regarding the breakthrough announcements in maths and science: what is the actual amount of genuine innovation vs. sensationalism or even possible fraud?

Then the discussion turns to economics, where the guests all agree this is a disaster in the making. Some might argue it's a little harder to see the actual ROI of these LLMs.

Interesting framing from the get-go:

> With billions of people experiencing hunger in 2025 and unable to afford a healthy diet, food insecurity remains a critical global challenge.

You know where this is headed.

Haha, classic, sounds almost plausible, as anyone using PayPal painfully knows.

> Feels like the early stages of societal collapse.

Strongly agree, there is hardly any intelligent discussions with diverging opinions left anymore. People are too deep into their own propaganda, agenda, and echo chambers. Peak bullshit is near.

> Finally, Deckard must question what he is doing, and really what is the essential difference between him and them? And, to take it one step further, who is he if there is no real difference?

Honestly, that is still what I get from Ridley Scott’s version.

As reliable as telling a pachinko machine: don’t lose my money!

What if you played Pachinko for two hours? Even if you won two dollars, you basically wasted your time.
