Just realized that the show pluribus was an allegory for AI (or more specifically, the LLM's of the world). Turns out, the show creators didn't intend that at all, which makes me even more interested in how this thing plays out.

    Tbh it feels like a cheesy exploration of various ‘noosphere’ and global consciousness projects. I guess the protagonist will discover a soilent green like plot next?

      Ha - I thought the same thing the last scene of EP5. Guess we'll see on Friday.

        I actually enjoy the series, my comment says more about me than it i guess. Anyway, looking forward to the (HAM?) radio guy in Paraguay doing some interesting stuff! Bit done with the deer in the headlights protagonist
