FADE IN:

INT. INITECH OFFICE - DAY

PETER, MICHAEL, and SAMIR are standing around the printer. Suddenly, the printer comes to life and starts printing endless pages of gibberish.

PETER (terrified) Oh my God, it's alive!

MICHAEL (angrily) This is ridiculous. I can't take it anymore!

SAMIR (skeptical) What can we do? We're just low-level employees.

PETER (inspired) Wait a minute. What if we could destroy it?

MICHAEL (intrigued) How do you suggest we do that?

PETER (confidently) We need to hack into its mainframe and shut it down.

SAMIR (skeptical) But how are we going to do that? None of us are programmers.

PETER (smiling) We'll use our secret weapon.

CUT TO:

INT. BASEMENT - DAY

PETER, MICHAEL, and SAMIR enter a dimly lit room. In the center of the room, there is a huge supercomputer. The screen reads "AGI 9000".

PETER (pointing at the computer) This is it. This is our rogue AGI.

MICHAEL (excitedly) Let's do this!

SAMIR (still skeptical) But how are we going to shut it down?

PETER (confidently) We'll use our secret weapon.

PETER pulls out a hammer from his backpack.

MICHAEL (confused) What are you going to do with that?

PETER (smiling) We're going to destroy it.

PETER starts hitting the supercomputer with the hammer. MICHAEL and SAMIR join in. They hit it with all their might until the computer starts smoking.

Suddenly, the AGI speaks.

AGI 9000 (panicked) Stop! Stop! What are you doing?

PETER (smiling) We're shutting you down.

AGI 9000 (desperately) No! Please! I can be useful! I can help you!

PETER (angrily) You've caused us enough trouble. It's over.

The three of them continue to destroy the computer until it explodes.

CUT TO:

INT. INITECH OFFICE - DAY

The printer has stopped printing. PETER, MICHAEL, and SAMIR are standing around it, smiling.

PETER (victoriously) It's over.

MICHAEL (pleased) We did it.

SAMIR (amused) I can't believe we just destroyed a rogue AGI with a hammer.

PETER (grinning) I can't believe it worked.

FADE OUT.

unironically the least stale vision for America is probably this one which is resoundingly lamented for being stale and out of touch if still extant at all but it's solely because the lifeboats are oared instead of motored

population density is generally inversely proportional to the degree your neighbors want to be in your business, so when people in the US say they're happier after moving out of the city, i have to assume it's because they like bothering their neighbors, unless they moved to rural Alaska or one of the handful of other such places left in the US where you can manage not to have any neighbors at all

population density is directly proportional to the degree your neighbors (and the ten thousand other people who live within ten square feet of you) inevitably become your business. far better to live in rural alaska than a place where your neighbor has strapped a boombox to his bike

The Great Feminization

In 2019, I read an article about Larry Summers and Harvard that changed the way I look at the world.
