Got it, immortality or bust. Just so long as we're staying grounded.

Yeah fuck people, you tell em AI!

>I doubt even 20% of people are really boiling the implications down in their head.

Well, (1) the people who are boiling the ramifications down in their heads still have no idea what the fuck is going to happen and (2) given how hard it is to figure out what's going to happen and what the fallout will be, the remaining 80% are perhaps wisely waiting for some other experts to figure it out and tell them about it so they know exactly what to freak out over.

To me, it is clear AI will advance rapidly, but exactly how rapidly and with what particular impacts on society, I have little clue. How do you prepare for that?

Well I'm pretty sure to get this study published you'd have to follow that many people for 25 years.

Yeah, I mean, if you're already getting good exercise while enjoying it, don't stop whatever you're doing. But I think about 95% of people struggle doing that and I can't think of another single suggestion that by itself is such a good way to solve that problem. Right, it absolutely won't work for everyone, but compared to a lot of things, it's pretty broadly accessible.

Yeah, AJ was a good character and well acted IMHO by a child actor coming of age in the middle of a massive hit show. Fine to dislike the character, but I don't think there's really anything to complain of there in terms of holding back the show.

Well my kid and I tried asking it some basic hypotheticals about fantasy characters, like who would win a fight between Superman and Kirby, and it wouldn't touch those with a ten-foot pole. Got fairly preachy canned responses about how it's unhealthy to be so focused on violence.
