I dunno, sounds like a pretty deep cut.

Here’s a clearly intelligent woman and Spock has just told her to her face that her society has converted her into an object, and he did it in a way that everyone is going to interpret it in a way where they view him as sort of an effortless alpha for doing it while missing the point.

Legend.

Oh man. It’s the only one where they actually don’t boldly go anywhere. I’ve always had trouble with that and probably actually need therapy because of it. It took me a long time to even accept it as real star trek.

I heard some recent steam thing made it pretty great now? Or was that just marketing talking?

I think the place we haven’t quite gotten to yet is that copyright is probably the wrong law for this. What the AI is doing is reverse engineering the authors magic formula for creating new works, which would likely be patent law.

In the past this hasn’t really been possible for a person to do reliably, and it isn’t really quantifiable as far as filling a patent for your process, yet the AI does it anyway, leaving us in a weird spot.
