Godzilla (Japan). In one zap of the breath weapon takes out 100,000 people. No pause for reflection or comment on the meaning of it. Just immediately cut to next scene.

I think that if we made humans more moral then democracy would work better and knock over any ruling class. Maybe some kind of mental therapy. Hallucinogens? Shamanic journeying? Something to make people better. Like, less stressed. Healthier.

Humans are magic. Capable of volition. Machines can only react. AI will be something like a really good wish-granting machine. Much like it is now but better. Want it? I dunno, don’t feel much about it. It’s inevitable tho.
