And so I'm curious also, and so the people I know who are observing this are saying like, this actually feels...
kind of wonderful to see a humility rising up in that world.
And I'm just curious if you're experiencing that too.
Yeah.
It's a nervous chuckle.
Right, this is a humility emerging from fear.
I mean, you know, there's a line, I can't remember who said this in the film, what makes us dangerous is what makes them dangerous, right?
And I had actually never heard the connotations in the word agent of agency.
And it seems to me that we also ought more often to just remind ourselves that this technology, however it is advancing beyond our imagination and our programming, is a student of us.
It is a mirror on us.
And when we fear it, we're fearing ourselves.
When we marvel at it, and I think we should marvel at it more because, you know, what you're saying about, you know, the way we progress, you know, it is always a leap of imagination and it needs to be about what we're building and what we hold dear as much as what we need to hold back.
And I think you were making this case in the film earlier
You know, I will also say what you're also talking about, and which I think came through really vividly, is that, you know, we are storytelling creatures.
And the stories we tell have the force of making worlds.
That is a truth about humanity.
It's a truth about history.
So if we are, and I think there's a lot of parallels to me with our ecological reckoning, right?
If we are only, and I think we have walked down a path of drumming the dystopian story and the dystopian possibilities and the devastation to the point of demoralizing rather than mobilizing humanity.
And I feel like we actually have to walk down a similar road, but perhaps can do it differently with this technology.
