valsombraWent to see Have Fun, Good Luck, Don't Die last night.
I loved it.
I hated it.
I am hoping that if the crazies in charge ARE successful in creating AGI, it is as indifferent to my existence as I will be to its existence.
Feeling very much like the protagonist of Victor Lavalle's Ballad of Black Tom; I will take the indifference of a cosmic entity that I cannot understand over the open malice of a society ruled by sociopathic oligarchs and technocrats any day of the week.
I really love cosmic horror, but I am not so sure I am a fan of living it. The closer we get as a society, collectively, to peering behind the veil--the more the idea of madness as the result of clarity and understanding resonates with me.
