Why and Why Now? (with Rebecca Murphey) | Dead Code

@billionaires

Ok. For 1 billion GBP, I will shut the fuck up forever.

The catch is that you can't try to have me killed, maimed, intimidated, threatened, discredited
(for anything other than what I've likely done, according to meta-analysed double-blind peer-revied studies in reputable journals with robust anti-AI and anti-corruption policies and regulatory procedures with regular independent reviews in place and themselves tested by other agencies).

etc etc spirit of what I'm saying, not the weaselly legal maneuvreing rich people always do.

I promise not to pull a Luo Ji on this one guys, I swear. Unless that somehow brings down a system of hierarchical thinking faster?

Goddaaaaaamn there were so many dudes in Three Body Problem tho. I read the books years ago and the sexism was nauseatingly boring.
Maybe the translators toned it down, but the guys were all important, women were fuckable,
or the hills were curvy like women the character wanted to fuck,
or someone makes up a tulpa of the ideal (2D?) woman he wants to fuck. On and on.

We get it! Women are hot! Fine! Gay shit isn't allowed in China and many other countries. Fine, whatever.
Could you make the *science fiction* story either wankable or focused? PLEASE?

It's porn or it isn't. Fuck off with that Boomer porn mag in the bush behind the supermarket shit.
Seeing half an areola through a bra is not the most interesting thing you can find online, in person, or commissioned from NSFW artists and sex workers.
Wild idea, you could even commission actors to bang on screen!

Leave it out, Cixin Liu. What the actual fuck.

Stick to the existential dread and historical reverberations of individual, impulsive decisions.

Few things cause me to immediately stop reading a paper, slides, or article than when I encounter, "The dictionary defines..."
