Hurling ordure at the TREACLES, especially those closely related to LessWrong.
AI-Industrial-Complex grift is fine as long as it sufficiently relates to the AI doom from the TREACLES. (Though TechTakes may be more suitable.)
This is sneer club, not debate club. Unless it's amusing debate.
[Especially don't debate the race scientists, if any sneak in - we ban and delete them as unsuitable for the server.]

Hooray…still thinking about how apparently the OpenAI and Anthropic PR teams were impressed with this doc, which is a pretty clear indicator of what it’s going to be like
the reviews on imdb have dropped a bit (from 8.5 down to 7.5) but that’ll probably change when the full thing drops
Also is it just me or does the trailer have a weirdly large views vs likes ratio? 5.6mil views with only 6.7K likes? is that the norm for documentaries?

Most of the views are probably the target demographic feeding it to a chatbot to summarize without ever opening the page in a real browser.
well thats fucking depressing to think about. You're probably right tho
With my extremely scientific method of "clicking on trailers for random documentaries and seeing the ratios" the like-to-view ratio is typically in a range from 1-10 to 1-100. The biggest outlier I saw was probably Will & Harper at about 1-400. The AI Doc is about 1-800. Also interesting is the comments. Will & Harper has about 6400 comments while the AI Doc only has 640, which would be comparable to something like Murder in Monaco, a documentary trailer with about a tenth of the views (and also has a comparable amount of likes).
Thank you for your rigorous scientific studying stranger
Sorry if this is unsolicited, but I decided to put a bit more rigour into it and check the average of 100 netflix documentary trailers from here

And make a chart.
That dot on the top right is the AI doc.
The dot on the bottom right is UNKNOWN: Killer Robots
The dot on the top is American Symphony
In both of those instances they're comparable on one axis but not the other.
So basically if this chart's correct there's definitely cause for suspicion
Who the balls is the market for an AI-glazing "documentary"? The more one likes the technology, the shorter one's attention span.
"Look, Grandpa, here's what we should invest the trust fund into!"
They're going to have their AI watch it and summarize it for them so then can nod their head and go "mmhm" and know that they are truly the pioneers of the Future...
What the fuck is this, Pets Dot Com, the musical?
