No?
Oh yea, no, me neither.

I tried ep 1 season 1 when it came out and it was all grey-ish-lit people in suits rubbing their faces and yelling about stocks. This.... is not that.

Look, we all agree this is amazing. But we used to live comfortable in the understanding that you had to invite Chotiner in, like a vampire.
Now we know that Chotiner might strike at any time, like a velociraptor.

It's almost Spotify Wrapped season for those who celebrate, and the big question in my mind is whether they learned their lesson last year. I'm convinced last year's inexplicable looking-creative but actually being sort-of-boring-and-nonresonant was the result of heavy AI reliance.
