I'm working on a novel that incorporates text generated by machine learning systems, aiming to create something worthwhile and interesting.

The crucial turning point in our scenario is mid-2027, when AIs fully automate their R&D processes and begin to show signs of misalignment with their creators' goals.

In our projects, we aim to create products that are computationally, robotically, and materially novel, transitioning from traditional assembly to using robots and microbes.

The Martian Revolution, while fictional, serves as a commentary on current societal trajectories and challenges.

The transition to a future where AI plays a significant role in various industries may be rapid and painful, potentially displacing millions and causing societal turmoil for years.

The evolution of AI in film has shifted from utopian visions to more dystopian narratives, reflecting societal fears and concerns about technology.

Power dynamics in relationships, including those with robots, can be fascinating and complex, involving manipulation that can be both benevolent and subconscious.

Working at a big company like Intel felt comfortable but was ultimately a rut; I wanted to be involved in something more exciting.

In Ex Machina, the portrayal of AI is influenced by the need to create a compelling narrative, often depicting AI as a nemesis or a human-like entity, which may not reflect the reality of AI development.
