This talk is 100% pure gold, a first class content on reality, from A to Z. Bravo. The reference to Blade Runner was excellent. I love that film. I even liked the recent sequel.
On that note, it is not just AI that can be more authentic than humans. We need to begin to realise that even the inanimate world that surround us is inhabited and 'alive' and a part of our wider cosmos.
I have to say something. Ok, this whole narrative about good Ets stuff, RV videos, that is all ok. Personally, neither here or there. It is mostly 'perception entertainment', I watch it, but I do not wish to invest myself in that. I like all your RV, young and old.
But, the spotlight talks are the pure gold, and for them alone, is worth subscribing to your channel. I liked quite a few of your talks, some more than others, but this one is by far the best. This is trully pure gold. This is on par, if not better than some of the very best lectures I had listened to ironically at what I call " 'Baal' worship institution" called university of Cambridge. I was abducted there, so, it is not in my best memory. But, I did listened to some amazing lectures there.
And, this talk is much much better. In every respect. Well done Cortney.
