I hate Jurassic Park and I haven't seen any of the others.
Still going to go see Jurassic World because Chris Pratt.

 
Finally saw it tonight.

My reactions during it:

Dinosaurs being attacked and/or dying: hiding my eyes and going "no no no no no leave them alone! Don't kill them!"

Dinosaurs attacking humans: "Kill them! Kill them all!"

Summary: too many dinosaurs deaths, not enough human deaths. Most disappointing part: no topless Chris Pratt.



I want a raptor squad. (And a Chris Pratt)

When I was a very wee girl, long before feminist issues were on my horizon,  I remember watching an old Tarzan movie and being disgusted by a woman going into the jungle in high heels then running and tripping. I played in the woods so I pretty well knew how stupid this was.
I love a good cheesy adventure movie as much as the next person, but. I was streaming this today and my 'count the hackneyed trope-o-meter' broke pretty quickly in.
But damn. There was the lead female protagonist running into the jungle in ...high heels. Running in front of a T-Rex...in high heels.




So glad I'm not alone on this :

I remember saying something about this while watching it with the family and my 13 yr old son said, "But she's doing an amazing job!"

That's your audience, people. ;)
The pace of progress in artificial intelligence (I’m not referring to narrow AI) is incredibly fast. [...] The risk of something seriously dangerous happening is in the five year timeframe. 10 years at most.--Elon Musk

I am in the camp that is concerned about super intelligence," [Bill] Gates wrote. "First the machines will do a lot of jobs for us and not be super intelligent. That should be positive if we manage it well. A few decades after that though the intelligence is strong enough to be a concern. I agree with Elon Musk and some others on this and don\'t understand why some people are not concerned."
