    The show was created to show us how fucking stupid AI is, and how in the end it will destroy us to make us happy. Like fucking asking for nuke and they go okay.

    Fuck sake the guy had the nuclear football in episode two. He clearly asked for it and they gave it to him. They also released everyone in prison. That includes murders, rapist, serial killers, etc. They clearly fucked in the head.

    What I still want to know. Why would the fuck did the scientist go “Hey aliens sent us a virus to create. Lets do that.” Like what the fuck. Why create the virus in first place? Clear the aliens don’t have humanity best interests in mind.

      They also released everyone in prison.

      If rehabilitated, and simply are no longer hateful/entitled/greedy, no reason not to.

      “Hey aliens sent us a virus to create. Lets do that.”

      I guess its somehow clear to everyone that a virus is 100% involved. Would seem like a plot hole that a virus has instant global communication capability.

      Clear the aliens don’t have humanity best interests in mind.

      Not to me. Helping us be the best us can be good for us.

      The show was created to show us how fucking stupid AI is, and how in the end it will destroy us to make us happy.

      It’s simplistic to compare to our current LLMs. To me it’s clearly “what if we were naturally not aggresive”, including non aggressive in our evangelism.
