  • Hmmmm AI folks , sound familiar ?



  • The Terminator : In three years, Cyberdyne will become the largest supplier of military computer systems. All stealth bombers are upgraded with Cyberdyne computers, becoming fully unmanned. Afterwards, they fly with a perfect operational record. The Skynet Funding Bill is passed. The system goes online August 4th, 1997. Human decisions are removed from strategic defense. Skynet begins to learn at a geometric rate. It becomes self-aware at 2:14 a.m. Eastern time, August 29th. In a panic, they try to pull the plug.
  • Sarah Connor : Skynet fights back.
    The Terminator : Yes. It launches its missiles against the targets in Russia.
    John Connor : Why attack Russia? Aren't they our friends now?
    The Terminator : Because Skynet knows that the Russian counterattack will eliminate its enemies over here.

The theory is most things we dream are reality in another parallel dimension, we just haven't yet evolved to that point. This comment might actually be more appropriate in the ufo thread.🙂
Have you seen the movie "Interstellar"? A Sci-Fi acid trip with some interesting concepts:oops:

One of my sons been interested in the concept of theoretical physics and time travel type things. I've watched Tenent, Inception and Interstellar all within a week.
My brain was on overload🤯
It's interested me in regards to the possibilities but way beyond my capability.
Cool that your boy has that interest, world could use some smart people like him.😎👍

He's much smarter than I can even grasp... I used to consider myself fairly bright, but learned lately I don't know anything. Learning a lot from him, and about how his brain works. It's interesting, to say the least.

Demolition man, Terminator 2, I am legend, I Robot, The Matrix.

These movies predicted the future, and the future is now. It's all coming true, who knows what happens next.
I am Legend was a re-engineered virus that got out of control 🤔. Can't place my finger on it but I think I've seen this before 🤔.

Yup.

Elon's podcasts with Joe Rogan are mesmerizing, except when you make the connection that he is literally making The Matrix a reality. I can't say it's scary though, it just is what it is. Adapt improvise and overcome, or get steamrolled.

Don’t forget Dick Tracy with his radio watch and Flash Gordon and his rocket ships!
