A quotation from Bill Watterson
HOBBES: A new decade is coming up.
CALVIN: Yeah, big deal! Hmph. Where are the flying cars? Where are the Moon colonies? Where are the personal robots and the zero gravity boots, huh? You call this a new decade?! You call this the future?? Ha! Where are the rocket packs? Where are the disintegration rays? Where are the floating cities?
HOBBES: Frankly, I’m not sure people have the brains to manage the technology they’ve got.
CALVIN: I mean, look at this! We still have the weather?! Give me a break!
Bill Watterson (b. 1958) American cartoonist
Calvin and Hobbes (1989-12-30)

#3Movies about our future with #AI worth watching …
1) Maybe you know one of the opening scenes from 2001 ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xkNV_wALoYc ) where the apes invented the first tool with the bones. Then an ape throws a bone into the air and in the next cut you can see a space station orbiting the earth. This is a metaphor for the fact that we invented the tool first and then later we can no longer live without our tool. Although not as brilliantly as in 2001, the film recommended here poses the question of whether AI is still a tool or whether humans have already become a tool for AI? A.I. Rising: https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/505914-a-i-rising
2) If AI controls everything for us in the near future, will everything be easier for us or can it be more difficult? Afraid: https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/1062215-afraid
3) Is humanity even worth saving? In an ethical discourse with an AI. Terminator Zero: https://www.themoviedb.org/tv/239287-terminator

if literature is the safety valve of civilisations we need more of it. but for civilsations to stand the test of time and with it the literature it consists of, we need different books. no ebooks that evaporate with each hd-failure, no paper books that will crumple with the heating climate. we need better books, hardened books. like clay tablets, freshly baked after inscribing them. wouldn't that be great, shakespear in cuneiform?! only hardened clay tablets will resist the passage of time!
