Great film... and nobody but Robin could have done that scene so well. Phew.

I wish I were in the timeline he's still alive in.

I agree with that sentiment. If it’s any consolation I think his “spirit” lives on in the work he helped create and in the people he inspired.

"Sum up the previously described situation from the perspective of someone like Robin Williams' character in Good Will Hunting when he explains what life is really like to Will."

I had the intellectual rug pulled out from under me like that, once. Someone I met minutes before saw deep inside and knew exactly where to push to make everything fall apart. It was brutal, took me days to recover.

Simulacrum of simulacrum. Quality degrades.

Xerox of a Xerox, for us BoJack Horseman fans.

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe... Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion... I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate... All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain...

Your complaint about AI is that it doesn't understand nuanced human condition?

Of course it doesn't. It wasn't designed to! At its core the llm's that we use right now are nothing more than complicated prediction engines that use man made algorithms to sound presentable enough to collate information for humans to consume!

I bet you couldn't even articulate the correlation between the scene that you have posted and what AI may or may not be.

I blame "AI" grifters who are preying on enthusiasm for the next, big "scifi breakthrough" we're all hanging on the edge of our seats for. AI Pushers came out calling it "AI" when everybody already had a conception of what AI is from media, muddling the point because the layman can't crack into the "black box" that is machine learning.

The thing that pretty accurately predicts what I am trying to accomplish when I’m coding and more often than not generates useful code that comes next is fundamentally shitty because of what Robin Williams says here?

You're just a Neanderthal conservative.
