I mean they know in the sense that they can point to any random object and say "that object is sentient" or "that object is not sentient." We cannot articulate the definition, but …

No I'm saying there's a majority opinion. And something is up if you can't empathize with the majority opinion. I mean you can say everyone has their own opinion and they're all ri…

Makes sense. You got me.

>Plus, even in the conversations shown, it was producing some bits of obvious nonsense, that seem to get rationalized away by the interviewer, who clearly wants to believe. I notic…

You seem to have a very specific view that pacing = faster. Pacing is not faster. GOT is not fast at all. In fact it takes several seasons for GOT to reach a payoff and everyone wa…

eh it's aging. It'll get to the point where it's unwatchable one day. The whole grid zoom thing is the most prominent thing that aged in my opinion. It all happened on a CRT screen…

I haven't read the book, but I met a lot of people who tell me that after they read the book, they now hate the movie because the book was so much better. Now after I read your com…

Star wars is a masterpiece. You just need to look at the aftermath of what it did to the cultural landscape. By far more influential then blade runner. Star wars is definitely lowe…

No he's not. Most people don't find blade runner entertaining. HN is not in any way representative of the general audience. Actually statistically speaking he's part of the majorit…

I disagree. While challenging and a definite technical marvel these issues are relatively deterministic based around the amount of resources a movie has to throw at effects, cinema…

I like blade runner, but I'm one of the people who finds the pacing horrible and I think most people in the general audience agree with me. Blade runner definitely is not blockbust…

>1. Pacing. It feels slow. This might blow your mind: The movie is only 2 hours. The sequel is about 45 minutes longer. I think this criticism is, frankly, invalid. Plenty of art/i…

The story pacing was horrible. However thematic elements in the story were revolutionary sci-fi at the time. The whole AI/replicant/consciousness thematic elements really spawned f…

>Obviously just clever lifeless patterns. This doesn't seem obvious to me. Those patterns were more or less identical to a conversation with another sentient human.

People already know what it means all over HN. They have basically already said that lamda is not sentient. So no need to even define it when we already know what it is (and lamda …

Why is that worrisome? I don't think it's worrisome at all. What's the worst that could happen if we make such a mistake. I'd be far more worried about the scenario I described. Im…

Oh shit. Then maybe it already happened but arm chair experts everywhere denied it already. Basically that's what I'm seeing all over HN for the recent lamda fiasco. Tons of people…

I'm just reusing the other guys' terminology. In general I'm just talking about the pacing of blockbusters, and the guy said I'm rationalizing really bad movies with "frenetic" pac…

One day someone is going to claim the AI is sentient and everyone will disagree with him. The difference this time will be that he is right and everyone else is wrong. One day.

Then why are you mocking it if it needs no help?

Maybe. The problem is the majority of the population has the exact same taste I'm talking about. Everyone loves summer blockbusters while Bladerunner is a niche. So am I rationaliz…

I wrote this piece in response to your comment: https://www.inverse.com/entertainment/is-star-wars-science-f... Just kidding, but it's equivalent to what I would've wrote. >You can…

Ridley Scott isn't a director that just does contemplative movies all the time. A lot of his stuff flat out just average (Prometheus for example) and he even does raw action blockb…

That's very closed minded of you to say that. Because I never said this. Probably a better way to put it is this. If you like Blade Runner AND the MCU, or at least understand why f…
