Q̳u̳o̳t̳e̳s̳ ̳F̳r̳o̳m̳ ̳T̳h̳e̳ ̳S̳h̳o̳w̳
B Earl:
“As a creative, as a writer, audition, as whatever you are, you know, look, the big thing comes down to do you have something to say and do we care, right?”
“I look at my 12-year-old, and I’m going, this is your world, it’s not mine.”
“We’re just so caught up in our own hubris and how awesome we are, and you have guys like Elon Musk who just say things to say things to disrupt them, and you’re just like, where are we right now as humans?”
“The one question we’re not getting into, and it’s called artificial intelligence, is: What is intelligence? What makes something intelligent?”
“We, as humans, have become the measure of intelligence. We’ve created these metrics, these numbers, and said, ‘This is what is smart, and then you’re all stupid.'”
“Nature has more for us to learn from than any of this other stuff. We think we’re brilliant because we created the internet, the atomic age.”
Corrales Cachola:
“There is no culture, there’s no community around AI, it’s just how can I get mine, and how can I be better than the next guy?”
“So AI comes along, and a lot of the decision-makers say, hey, we can basically replace you. Well, they’ve already replaced these people, they’re already using them, and I think that’s the unfair thing about AI.”
“That’s why I don’t like a lot of the AI implementation, even in the toolsets that we use, the SaaS tools that we see. It’s like, did I ask for this? No, no one asked for this, they just built it in, they baked it in.”
“When people talk about that, they forget the connections that were made to get to Einstein and then from Einstein to other people.”
“It’s not just about high intelligence; it’s about the connections that were made and that process of communication between people that builds true meaning and value.”
“Consciousness connects to love, community, and other things.”
