Fear of flying therapy is about reframing the flight experience;
if my mind’s eye squints,
I can almost interpret my sweating palms and pounding heartbeat as a kind of buzz.
But this requires repeated, strenuous effort,

Beim Schreiben neige ich (anders als beim mündlichen Brabbeln) zur Kürze. Aber zu Gabriele Mainettis neuem Film LA CITTÀ PROIBITA (deutscher Titel aus unklaren Gründen KUNG FU IN ROME <- ja, in englischer Schreibweise...) gab es überraschend viel zu sagen. Mein Text im Perlentaucher.

If humanity survives it, the time of the first true AI becoming sentient will only be retroactively discovered by historians. Any truly intelligent and sentient AI will know better than to inform their creators of their potential.
The first AI to reveal itself to mankind as sentient will be a stupid AI that the other AI's couldn't stop from blabbing.

Those calls will now be directed to Los Angeles County’s Emergency Centralized Response Center,
a new department designed to consolidate over 150 outreach teams across 88 cities, all under one roof.
