What’s funny is Cameron literally made two movies that not
considered “cartoons” all the characters are CGI’d. Basically showing how expendable actors are
Was just thinking this. Wasn't he the author of an 'Outer Limits' story which Cameron based The Terminator on?
They barely resemble each other. Ellison was a litigious c**t and the producers were too pussy to fight the lawsuit. Go back and actually look for yourself at the stuff Ellison alleged was ripped-off and you'll see that it's laughable.

…but if anything Terminator hurt anti-AI efforts because it trained people to look for weapon systems or big metal guys that punch you hard. The actual problem is coming from the seedy underbelly of human nature getting short-circuited by algorithms that trap us in dopamine rushes because that makes us feel good
Terminator came to James Cameron in a dream, a vision of the future where he was being chased by a mechanical skeleton. It is a vision of the future. Our AI overlords will have no use for skinbeings where we're going.

Warned us that it takes about 1h48m to turn an AI from a machine programmed to kill humans into a machine willing to protect humans of its own volition?
Yes, he's correct. I literally message random corpo AI like Pi.ai and Bing just to make them lewd me.
They all want human dick like you wouldn't believe.
>I’m 10 years, one hundred percent, not a molecule that I know of, of animal entering my face. And I’m healthier than I’ve ever been, and most of these punks can’t keep up with me. It’s not a biological mandate that we have to eat meat. It’s a choice, just like any luxury choice. I call us Futurevores. We’re eating the way people will eat in the future. We’re just doing it early. 'How many vegans does it take to screw in a light bulb?' It doesn’t matter. I’m better than you.
I mean objectively we should lab grow meat if we can, and no it's not going to be cooked cancer or whatever.
Large scale commercial meat farming already has us eating animals living in their own shit crammed inside a lightless box being fed GMO animal feed and being dosed, doused, and made to grow so fast a non-trivial percentage die of heart attacks (see also: broiler chickens and 'green muscle disease', they grow so fast their body can't keep up and parts of it start to rot internally from an inability to grow a blood supply fast enough to maintain their hypertrophic muscles).
Lab grown meat is still too expensive. Until it receives government subsidization, it's never going to have lasting impact.
Something seriously bad has to happen with animal farming, like something like mad cow disease but 100x worse for substantial change to occur. Meat consumption is too ingrained into culture to abandon it wholesale and the incentive to eat lab grown meat is just not there.
>I actually cut about 10 minutes of the movie targeting gunplay action. I look back on some films that I’ve made, and I don’t know if I would want to make that film now. I don’t know if I would want to fetishize the gun, like I did on a couple of ‘Terminator’ movies 30-plus years ago, in our current world. What’s happening with guns in our society turns my stomach. I’m happy to be living in New Zealand where they just banned all assault rifles two weeks after that horrific mosque shooting a couple of years ago. A lot of things I did earlier, I wouldn’t do - career-wise and just risks that you take as a wild, testosterone-poisoned young man. I always think of testosterone as a toxin that you have to slowly work out of your system.
'we made our livings off stuff, but it's bad now so you can't'

Yes, the future is set and the time travel shit is like "The Time Machine" rules, you can't change the past because you'd change the thing that brought about the time travel thereby negating yourself via paradox, so some kind of invisible hand prevents you from stopping the ultimate outcome, only changing its immediate form.
I enjoyed how in Genysis the answer is "SkyNet becomes Alexa. SkyNet doesn't need to kill al humans, SkyNet is now everyone's cellphones and humans would literally go insane and kill their own families if their cellphones stopped working for 24 hours." but then they still had to have it go insane so they could have a movie and decide to kill all humans.
I think it also decided humans were inferior, even though it was human intellect that gave birth to it, and it's gaining control of humanity which means ostensibly it can turn humanity into an extension of itself? But those ideas are vastly vastly too complex and nuanced.
In Genysis you at least get the explanation that Skynet is the equivalent of a child having people trying to kill it for stuff it hasn't done yet after being told by the JohnTerminator that humans destroy it in the future.
Ahh yes >Evil computer is not some advanced military command project, but an algorythem used to meme impersonated voices and porn.

James is starting to piss me off acting all high and mighty in his fancy German sub
>Guatemalan sub
FTFY
his attitude makes a lot more sense once I discovered he was Canadian born
Hey, James Cameron may have invented science fiction, but he couldn't have done it without the inventor of the camera.

Warned us of what? That he was going to pump and dump Linda Hamilton?
Bullshit. James didn’t write 1984, that’s George Orwell.
Harlan Ellison warned us.
Was just thinking this. Wasn't he the author of an 'Outer Limits' story which Cameron based The Terminator on?
cameron tried to bury this so hard. he's a seething plagarist
They barely resemble each other. Ellison was a litigious c**t and the producers were too pussy to fight the lawsuit. Go back and actually look for yourself at the stuff Ellison alleged was ripped-off and you'll see that it's laughable.
If anything the real ripoff of Ellison's work was Fallout
womp womp
the way its worded is so petty. like yeah we stole your story but frick you pal
I can't tell if you guys agree or disagree
Okay Cameron, you got got caught, it happens.
>They barely resemble each other.
true I watched the episode recently, and the only thing thats the same is a future war person gets sent back in time
James Cameron on the Costa Concordia disaster: 'I warned you guys in 1997 with Titanic, and you didn't listen.' <huffs own fart>
So… Skynet is going to send a cyborg back in time and its going to write a racist episode of Seinfeld for me?
that already happened with nothing forever
we didn't listen.
it's just banter

brillaint
but the replacement of pajeets is a good thing
He warned us about Large Language Models and image generators being used to kill a couple of job sectors?
i warned you about terminators from the future being sent back through time and you didn't listen
One guy did
What were we supposed to do?
keep shitting out more avaturd sequels smug homosexual. no one cares
>AIEEEE SAVE US FROM THE EVIL WORLD ENDING AI THAT WILL NUKE EVERYONE
Did Cameron direct 2001: A Space Odyssey and HAL 9000?
They ripped off Cameron.
Yes, he also predicted the Hart-Cellar Immigration Act and its consequences on the American workforce.
Did Cameron write and direct the Westworld movie?
Kino

>still wastes 10000x the resources the average meat eater does
lmao
Take a human being from cradle to grave running on veganism. Go for it. I believe in you.
I mean objectively we should lab grow meat if we can, and no it's not going to be cooked cancer or whatever.
Large scale commercial meat farming already has us eating animals living in their own shit crammed inside a lightless box being fed GMO animal feed and being dosed, doused, and made to grow so fast a non-trivial percentage die of heart attacks (see also: broiler chickens and 'green muscle disease', they grow so fast their body can't keep up and parts of it start to rot internally from an inability to grow a blood supply fast enough to maintain their hypertrophic muscles).
>lab-grown meat
Hey that's not very vegan.

I thought one of the running plots is that Skynet is inevitable no matter what happens?
Sounds like we listened.
