2 years prior, in 1972, Andrei Tarkovsky adapted Stanisław Lem's Solaris to the big screen in the Soviet Union, which may have contributed to Dick's paranoia. Anyway, the film's a masterpiece that I highly recommend, and since it was published before 1975 it is not subject to copyright. You can find it on YouTube [1]. [1] [VIDEO]

Anyone else prefers Solaris over 2001? Both are great movies for sure but somehow Tarkovsky made everything more emotional and relatable. I love 2001 but to me Solaris is on another level (and Stalker too) If you have never watched it's on Youtube [VIDEO] (Mosfilm is generally one of the GOAT Youtube channels with their uploads) There is an older upload on their other channel if you want different subs [LINK] [LINK] (2 parts because of the original 2 reels)

> The question is, when will we feel that those things actually deserve to be thought of as being full-fledged, or at least partly fledged, "I"s? this LLM thing is more like a collective "we", it is making a prediction in the sense of the relevant training data, it probably wouldn't say anything that contradicts the consensus. Maybe the LLM's are just a mirror of our society. And our society doesn't seem to assign a lot of value to individualism, as such. i think that might be similar to the movie Solaris by Tarkovsky. The movie is starring an alien ocean, which is some sort of mirror, that is showing us who we are (maybe it has a different meaning, not quite sure about it). You can watch it on youtube: [VIDEO] (i think you also get this theme with Stalker - this zone is also telling us who we are)
