It is widely believed that artificial intelligence could change the world, from solving climate change to curing cancer.
Not by tech people but funnily enough by Silicon Valley tech bros (which are hipsters).

This fucking timeline...
It's like we're on a speed run toward the near-future Charlie Brooker warned us about.
But TBF, "Hang the DJ" was one of the few Black Mirror episodes that wasn't a total downer.
When do we get the Home Assistant who falls in love with its owner and tries to kill their partner out of jealousy?
Black Mirror didn't do that one, but American Horror Stories did:

Which is surprising because that show normally kinda sucks. Got roped into watching it last year, and I forgot I was watching AHS halfway through and almost thought it was a new Black Mirror.
Simpsons did it first, with Pierce Brosnan voicing the home assistant.
I feel like there was a YouTube Premium series that paid homage to the original story, too, but I don't remember the name of the show.
I'll forever know hangthedj as the original GTA cheat
