Do we want to live in a world where technology makes our decisions for us? That's the question at the center of 'Mrs. Davis,' from 'Lost' creator Damon Lindelof and Tara Hernandez. Column by bcmerchant:
“It was an anxiety of ours, an anxiety that we could get to this place,” Hernandez tells me of what she and Lindelof were channeling in their early conversations. ”I don’t know that we necessarily predicted that in April 2023 it would have arrived and, lo and behold, we’re releasing our show at the same time, but it certainly felt possible.”
in the way that magicians use ‘forces’ to make us pick cards, that these decisions that we’re making are actually generated algorithmically versus of our own free will?”Cover letters are notoriously hard to write. These job seekers decided to outsource the task to ChatGPT, an AI chatbot, with impressive results.
I can’t tell you how much I love this. I blasted through the eight episodes whenever my schedule allowed. Part of that was because the story takes some real swings — the show is madcap, surreal and satirical — and part of it was because it was nice to be in the hands of writers who had a grasp of their technology.
