While $500k 90m movie done in two weeks is an accomplishment, looking at the trailer it's very dubious to me on the quality of it. Plot, characters, audio - everything screams "I've already seen this somewhere", there's no substance here, at least for me. And while computer visuals are nice, it's nowhere "Love Sex Robots" quality where they're driven by computer graphics as well.

#13The mantra of Silicon Valley tech: Always Be Defrauding
Seriously I've seen multiple hypes which were exposed late after false claims spreaded fast and I feel bad for those who don't get to know the truth always

> I'm tired of move fast and break things Simple fix, stop hovering the HN frontpage every hour, don't read every news item you come across, it isn't needed, and probably isn't good for our psyche either :) Some things of course impact your day to day life, but most of these "Hate / Love" articles and news are mostly made to drive clicks, not to actually make your life better.

Like when the AI either costs them their job, or crashes as a bubble and takes the economy and their livelihood with it.
Or even simpler stuff like RAM and SSD (and soon phones) will be reasonably priced

#15The trailer is also awful. A slopfest impossible to follow. The editing is nauseating, the sound design is uninspired and the visual quality is hallucinatory.

#16Well, getting to the end of that trailer was a long and tedious experience.
Re: undefined
#17It worked and generated publicity.
I suspect their next movie will get nominated for an award at some academy, bonus points if Oscar Micheaux[1] or anyone else with that given name gets mentioned.
As long as BS sells, BS will get produced I guess.

#19Not exactly the kind of movie where AI can demonstrate that it knows physics.

Filtering what information you let affect your brain and mood isn't "denial", it's taking care of what you consume.
Try sitting and reading about death, suicide, harassment, violence exclusively for a week, like if you were a social media moderator, and you'll notice how quickly you're affected by these things, even if it doesn't feel like it in the moment.

Yes, this sucks, regardless of why it happens, it just straight up sucks. In 2008 we had a large financial crisis here, it sucked for most people in the country, either directly or indirectly. But you move forward, find other ways to live your life, adjust what you can and life goes on.
Today obviously is different, but back then it felt impossible things would ever change and return to normal.
