Apocaloptimism

March 30, 2026

I pre-ordered this on AppleTV . . .

The AI Doc: Or How I Became an Apocaloptimist

. . . and then decided it was too important to wait.

Boy, was I right.

Watch the trailer here.

Last month I wrote:


We need — urgently — to figure out (a) how to protect humanity from a superior species; (b) how to avoid economic catastrophe and, instead, harness A.I. for the benefit of all.


This movie — which everyone will be talking about by next week — addresses (a).

[For thoughts on (b), please see that previous post.]



Fareed Zakaria: 


Iran is exposing the limits of a presidency built on bluff, improvisation and submission rituals.


Watch.



And hey — please chip in a small tax-deductible contribution for those LeavingMAGA billboards!  After just one weekend, we’re already 39% to goal.  THANK YOU!
