maybe but considering some of the "brains" i've encountered over the years the only problem with coding the AI would be to make it stupid enough
Consciousness can't be transferred but it can (in sci-fi) be duplicated. As far as I remember there's no evidence of transfer of consciousness into the simulation. From our point of view it would look the same, but from their point of view it's a massive difference. Same thing with the project in Westworld. A copy is worthless to the person to dies except they get to think a part of them lives on. "Many worlds" transfer is also complete BS. The computer game Soma also considers this topic very nicely. I haven't played it but watched the story discussion:
Once Upon a time in Hollywood... 6.5/10 Abit meh really. Long film where not alot happens, could have been done in half the time. Some really interesting parts, the Manson stuff especially, swallowed up in a rather bland main story. Also Lena Dunham was in it and I can't stand her. And the random Narrated part was just out of place and frankly abit odd. But Hollywood loves a story about Hollywood. I'm starting to think that any film that get a Best Picture Oscar nod might be rather overrated. About half of the films to be on those lists from the past decade or more I've been rather underwhelmed with.
Much of Hollywood has become an epicentre for the worst kind of self-indulgent, sjw, woke and militant left-wingism, it seems like the point of a lot of films made there now is just to virtue signal and be artificially 'diverse', rather than to be good films. The same goes for a lot of media nowadays though
First off, I lean very much to the left I'd disagree with that slightly, that appears to be all a public front as many of them dont practice what they preach and frankly wouldn't anyway as it would hurt their bottom line, has anything really changed since Weinstein? Its Phony SJW, shout it loud enough and people will believe. I'd say Hollywood is still uber elitist and has become so pretentious (I'll give you self-indulgent though), if we look at films like Once...Hollywood, is a great film, nope, is it rated cause its Tarantino, you bet it is. And really its failure is not diversity or attempting to 'woke', its causes its rather dull, but got made because of the names attached. But I agree I'd much rather have something good, than something that panders or uses 'star' power. I frankly don't care if the lead(s) are male, female, black, white, gay, straight etc etc etc, as long as its good.
I disagree and really liked it. Not what you expect from QT but I liked the pace of it and the overall feel of the film.
Fair enough. I thought the main fella was very good tbf, she annoyed me, it does have good production values ... nicely shot with good locations but the characters just f*cked me off too much, and the story Oh and the actor playing the lanky rich lad she's dating for a while played that part very well ... annoying in the right way
I know what you mean about annoying, the main male character annoys me at times. I've got 2 episodes left. I think it's quite a realistic depiction of how we're all idiots at times when young and how sometimes you can get captivated by someone and then proceed to **** up every part of the relationship even though you don't want to. I really think the girl could go on to do great things.
Last night watched on Prime film Zulu (2015) crime based in SA.Forest Whittaker and Orlando Bloom (dodgy accent) decent film 7/10.
Finally got round to watching 'The New Pope', amazing. Follow up to 'the Young Pope'. I'd suggest watching both. Frankly the use of music alone is worth watching them.
