"That was a hasty judgment on my part. Unless AI takes one more leap and reaches a point where no one can tell the difference, what I believed was still closer to an ideal than a reality. I expected some of you would be disappointed by our use of AI. I did not expect it to become this big."

"I'm sorry we got caught this time. We'll try to dupe you again later."

Jury nullification is a thing for reason.

And they function normally in this sandbox? I'm assuming sandbox is just compartmentalization. I'm interested in these mainly because when I use an app, browser, whatever... I want it seeing only what I give it with regular use, I don't want it digging through my contacts, messages, location, microphone, other programs, yada yada.

The novel is more clear. Dave has evolved, literally. The monoliths are mile markers set out by ethereal aliens; the first teaching apes how to use tools, the other monitoring our progress to becoming space-faring.

2001 is one of the rare movies where the book isn't better but it is important. The movie and book were written at the same time with Clark and Kubrick working together. The book provides additional insights that are difficult to convey in a movie.

Also, going to the beaches here in San Diego and harassing the people harassing the seals and sea lions.

This is hard at fuck. This makes me hard as fuck.

I broke my foot a few years ago and can't run anymore. I can't play anymore but I've really been considering pulling my paintball gun out of the closet.

The subject of the essay being the industrial revolution seems apt. Or is it ironic?
