The End of the World with Michael and Stu
The Apocalypse is Everywhere. The End of the World with Michael and Stu is a (hopefully) insightful and (hopefully) humorous exploration of the rise of apocalyptic news, apocalyptic thinking and apocalyptic culture. Each week, we’ll be looking at a work of art, a piece of media, or an historical event related to the (hopefully not) impending End of the World.
The End of the World with Michael and Stu
Episode 15: Mom, I'm Dating Siri
This week we're getting into the many absurdities of 2013's Spike Jonze directed AI romcom, Her. We discuss the technical problems with the film's depiction of AI, plus Stu educates Michael on the particulars of the non-vol-cel community, which he has, for some reason, researched extensively. We also spend a few minutes off the top riffing on Jerry Seinfeld, our greatest living comedian, film star, and philosopher.
This episode contains spoilers for Her.
