This movie blew my mind as a kid and a serves warning of things to come with AI that kinda became a movie trope, but had some memorable scenes in Dark Star:
<Commander Powell> Talk to the bomb.
<Doolittle> But I have been talking to it, sir. And Pinback's talking to it right now.
<Commander Powell> No, no, Doolittle. You talk to it.
<Commander Powell> Teach it phenomenology
- throw0101b 3y ago> <Commander Powell> Teach it phenomenology Oy vey: > Phenomenology is the philosophical study of objectivity and reality (more generally) as subjectively lived and experienced. It seeks to investigate the universal features of consciousness while avoiding assumptions about the external world, aiming to describe phenomena as they appear to the subject, and to explore the meaning and significance of the lived experiences.[1] * https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phenomenology_(philosophy) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phenomenology_(philosophy)
- mcguire 3y agoMy assumption is that it's an attempt to cause the bomb to be suicidal.
- james-skemp 3y ago> phenomenology Where I got my BA in philosophy the department head was all about Husserl. Another philosophy professor from a neighboring college told a number of us about Dark Star. In hindsight I do wonder if it was because of the phenomenology reference, or because they were philosophers who took in 60s/70s/... scifi/speculative fiction.
- saltcured 3y agoI keep Dark Star in a nostalgic mental cabinet alongside Dr Strangelove and The Prisoner. But somehow that last Cmdr Powell line, with italics, immediately makes me think of Schizopolis. "Nomenclature"...
