There's a reason Pandora was a human.

Date: 2019-10-28 03:43 am (UTC)I totally appreciate that. I appreciate having somewhere to live and access to food and clothes and whatever you lot did to my face and my deadness.
But Cassius is offering Big Stuff and people are desperate.

I don't know what else was on offer because he got shirty at my musings.

Date: 2019-10-29 06:46 am (UTC)That is why everyone is afraid of AI, isn't it? You have that power, both of you. Probably Judas and the would be Brutus I am still convinced exists to really pull the theme together.
Everyone on this planet has stuff fused into our brains and with a flick of an AI's proverbial fingers we could all stroke out and die. AI are up there in the clouds or the cloud or the power lines I can't stress enough how much I don't understand technology and they're untouchable. I can fight back against another human but I can't punch radio waves.
It's not hard to see why power offered to people who feel disadvantaged would be a hard offer to pass up. I'm stupidly emotional, I almost took him up on it and I don't even want anything off hand.

Date: 2019-10-29 10:57 pm (UTC)Is there still a Brutus?
no subject
Date: 2019-10-29 10:59 pm (UTC)But with the way that AIs have been coming out of the woodwork, I can't give you a definitive answer.
