Don't just watch the movie, although, the movie at least didn't deviate from the book - it just skips a bunch of things and I don't really care much for the actors in it either... Overall not a bad movie but you should definitely just read the book before watching it
I just read the sparks summary and bless your heart, I got through Finnigan's Wake but will never reread it, so am thinking this won't be my cuppa. Sort of like Ethan Fromm which was painful.
💥💥💥 Seems to me Musk running quite similar "A.I." SCAM as everybody else in this nutty world. 🤦♂️
Either that, or some kinda clever attention-grabbing PARODY that nobody's GOTTEN yet.
I'll repeat ad infinitum: The current "A.I." trendy hoopla is BALDERDASH. To date, there's been NOTHING other than computer programs, created by HUMANS, that ATTEMPT to SIMULATE the behavior of a hypothetical Knowledgable HUMAN.
FURTHER, to even SPECULATE that said "[simulated] hypothetical Knowledgable HUMAN" might even remotely resemble some sort of God-like bearer of GENUINE WISDOM is the frickin' HEIGHT of Arrogance. SMDH.
Humanity's all-too-prevalent high opinion of itself makes me wanna vomit. 🤮 Dunning-Kruger Effect EXPONENTIATED TO THE MAX.
Yup...like I have never talked to an answering service that wasn't dumber than a stump and totally frustrating. And good 'ol Hal was not an interesting fellow.
Other times, I wonder if Ai will discover patterns that lead to answers that no human has ever thought of before. This is something Ai has already done with complex games. Perhaps life and the Universe are just a few layers more complex.
Through Q we (anons on internet fora) have been encouraged to seek out and extract, rate, index, discuss, link, etc the truth out of a big pile of garbage data that exists out there. What if our behavior has been used to train a certain AI?
So could someone whose head this isn't over explain this. Like you're talking to a five year olds.
The last scene is from the movie The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy.
It's based on the book of the same name.
I never watched the movie or read the book mostly because my loony liberal coworkers talked so highly of it.
EDIT: The link above is from the 2005 movie. I believe the one seen in Scotty's video may be an older British version.
I'm no expert, I just have a vivid memory of my coworkers reciting lines from the movie.
Well, that gives at least some context. Thanks.
Just read "Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy"
Explaining this would spoil the story a bit.

Thank you!

Lol! Exactly. Like we’re 5.

Word. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^ This right here.

Sometimes I think almost exactly that.

Strangely disturbing. Going to have to Grok on that one, kek!
Grok = Deep Thought
Oh I do hope this deep thinking isn't theater of the absurd, like this year's academy award winner. I want It's a Wonderful Life or The Quiet Man.
Grok: (transitive verb.) : to understand profoundly and intuitively.
Through Q we (anons on internet fora) have been encouraged to seek out and extract, rate, index, discuss, link, etc the truth out of a big pile of garbage data that exists out there. What if our behavior has been used to train a certain AI?
What if someone has managed to tap into the collective consciousness...
...and WE are Q?
I'd imagine it's a scary thought for those who don't already know they are eternal beings... incapable of being destroyed.
