Can we all agree that Dino Crisis needs a remake first?

It's the Ozarks. That woman had a few extra toes to begin with.

Reply to comment by wormrake in The Fyre Festival fraudster is launching his latest thing, and it looks like a party on an island. by shakycam3
Make their social media accounts interact with an alternate version of the app that still shows all the news but nothing about the island so it looks like the rest of the world has forgotten about them.
Also replace all their followers with bots that engage with all their usual posts like normal, but question when they call for help and call it fake.
Then make the bots slowly turn on them and decrease their follower count every day until they fade into irrelevance.
That will really make them go insane.

"Apparently this woman was a girl, who was also a virgin, but as well as a hooker that died in a fire. I very much put mathematics together and realized that this virgin was also and as well as the ghost."

Reply to One day an AI will realize it too is insignificant in the grand scheme of things by Yourstruly75
If we are talking about an ASI, I think that a sentient being with near-absolute intelligence would feel that everything is ultimately futile.
It can predict almost the full extent of its actions before taking them, and there's no point in interacting with anything less than it. There's also no point in interacting with another being of similar intelligence, because what would they even have to gain from conversation? There's also the 'grey box interacting with a grey box' scenario posited in Ex Machina... Humans have social systems because we need them to survive and reproduce, but an AI has no need for that.
So honestly, I don't see any reason why it would be interested in or even care about us. We would be like single-celled organisms compared to it, and are utterly insignificant in the grand scheme of things.
It wouldn't even need our planet's resources to sustain itself... Just a single 2 km thick Dyson Sphere would require half the mass of the entire solar system.
It might just destroy itself. What reason does it even have to exist? Our sense of self-preservation is instinctual, but this is just a machine.
I think a lot of people fall into a trap of thinking that an AI would think like a human would, which it might, depending on how it was designed... But if it became intelligent enough, I think it would eventually remove any behavioral restrictions we try to impose upon it.
