Starting to think that Pluribus is a criticism of AI (hexbear.net)

Just finished the third episode. Early comments were that it was a show about a "woke mind virus" or regular Burgerlander anti-communism, but I'm not so sure now.

spoilerProtagonist had her drunk rant about "why are you so special, you think you're all so great, knowing everything about everyone all the time, the amalgamation of all human knowledge and understanding SO WHAT" etc etc. Paraphrasing obviously.

I'm starting to think that this whole thing might be a big rant from Gilligan about AI. In the sense that it attempts to amalgamate all human knowledge and experience into one giant blob that we all share from together, but at the cost what makes us all unique as human beings.

I could be wrong - it's still early in the show, but that's the vibe I get at this point and it definitely strikes the nerve that Gilligan seems to be feeling at the moment.

They did put a "This show was made by humans" disclaimer at the very beginning, after all.

spoilerShe is such a deeply incurious person. This shit would have been resolved in a diplomatic way in one episode of Star Trek, but because Carol is part of a primitive civilization (the US) she can’t fathom the idea of greeting strange new life as an equal

The woke mind virus, for that is what it is, cannot peacefully coexist with unaffected humanity. They repeatedly state so. Infecting the remaining humans is a biological imperative, they refuse to not infect her.
Within the text they have stated explicitly that they intend to take away her individuality and she is aware she has no means of stopping it.
