Hello and welcome to Night Call, a call-in show about our dystopian reality.

My name is Emily Oshita.

I am on the line with Molly Lambert and Tess Lidge.

Later on, we're going to be joined by Joan Ford to talk about Halloween, fall,

and why fall starts on July 5th. So stay tuned tuned for that we had a night call we want to kick

things off with we have been talking actually now for the past few weeks about AI about their

consciousness slash lack of consciousness and the possibility of it ever existing so we got a fun little call about that.

Hi, Michael.

First time caller from Kentucky.

I just wanted to throw in with that when you were talking about AI

and the idea of making it self-conscious.

And then somebody's bringing up making the AI is like Democratic or whatever

or have to come to a consensus.

And it just made me think of Evangelion.

And if I remember correctly, the supercomputers in that show,

they have three of them, and they have to come to like a consensus before they, like, act

or follow orders or whatever. And I think there are times throughout the show that the computers actually like don't necessarily do what they want

because the decision the computers come to might be like, you know, differently aligned or intended than like the initial order that the people operating like put in or whatever but anyway

left the podcast uh have a great day thanks bye thank you for the call thanks for bringing eva into it

uh yeah uh do you guys want to hear about the Maggi system?
