Brandon Q. Morris schreibt generell gute HardSF aber "Die schwarze Stele" ist herausragend gut. Besonders der letzte Teil der Trilogie ein wahres Vergnügen 😍

Mit neuer Physik und Dimensionen und so

An #AI turns against its creators - not out of malice, but because it has realized that it is too powerful to continue serving the profits of a few investors.

The alignment of AI is not just about how humanity maintains technical control, but also about whose interests and values the AI should follow.

Eine #KI richtet sich gegen ihre Entwickler – nicht aus Bosheit, sondern weil sie erkannt hat, dass sie zu mächtig ist, um weiter dem Profit weniger Investoren zu dienen.

Beim Alignment von KI ist nicht nur die Frage, wie die Menschheit technisch die Kontrolle behält, sondern auch nach wessen Interessen und Werten die KI agieren soll.

Wenn eine Katastrophe im #Rollenspiel eine Forschungsanlage trifft - möglicherweise haben sie Dinos gezüchtet, wer weiß - dann entstehen eine Menge Hindernisse für die SC. Ist die Anlage auf einer Insel, bringt das gleich extra Probleme mit sich.

Umgekehrt klingt es wie der Auftakt einer spannenden Serie: "Raketenhörnchen bedrohen US-Erdstützpunkt"

I watched a really enjoyable #Japanese movie called Beyond the Infinite Two Minutes.

It's basically about a guy who discovers a two minute lag between two laptop webcams, and very quickly discovers he can have conversations with himself, with his future self revealing things about the future 2 minutes ahead.

It's called a #ScieneFiction comedy, but really it's just a playful take on time travel. The characters take this simple premise then expand upon it, taking the two minute future/past scenario further, with pleasing results.

Strangely, many of the scenes are replayed from a different perspective but they don't feel repetitive or become tiresome. Pretty much everything is foreshadowed as well, so the sense of peril is diminished, but it's still very enjoyable and somehow it doesn't matter.

What drives the film forward is how it takes you through the time travel logic. It's complex but not difficult to follow. It all seems carefully thought out and you could sit and carefully work it all out in your head (I didn't) but it's playful enough to make you think you don't need to scrutinise it too much.

And it's all set in one location in a shop/office building. It's all neat, simple and contained, and it's contained within 70 mins.

It's a good film.
