I will be honest: I love scifi with all my heart, but I do actually partly blame it for how people create and interpret 'AI' stuff these days. Take for instance this narrator saying how smart AI is and how our minds were 'built for fucking and fighting on some prehistoric grassland'. Bitch, spare me your Hobbesian bullshit, thank you very much. Extremely reductive of human being-ness.

This guy's intimacy issues are downright exhausting, like gimme a break. Siri is a slut for game theory and how *everything* is a strategy, including in relationships. Poor Chelsea, damn. This does illustrate very well why it's hard to be with straight men who cannot be emotionally present in the moment but have to let this irrational thing they call 'reason' or 'logic' to hijack everything.

I hate when evolutionary biology bullshit (*cough* Dawkins shit *cough*) still exists in the future. Siri is an oblivious dick. I really like Chelsea, his ex, hope she is out there living her best life.

I feel this very strongly. It's that gadgety aspect of scifi, which I used to enjoy a lot but have gradually grown sour on. I think this effect is basically the same as what happens with pop history books that try to explain all of human history via some singular grand unified theory (The Dawn of Everything dissing this stuff was so cathartic for me). It's also kinda bonkers how supposedly science-y people so often use phrases like these "built for" that are the same way that creationists talk, and end up propagating boneheaded ideas about how evolution works (<3 Stephen Jay Gould).

@Martinho, yeah, it's just utter bullshit reinforcing mainstream bias over and over. Just totally bunk and sucky, and part of why we can't have nice things!
