Pluribus HDP Season 1 Episode 6 Editor’s Rating 4 stars **** Carol sets out to share her revelation about the Others, only to realize it might not matter. Photo: Apple TV While doing a press conference at the Marrakech Film Festival last week, where he was serving as a juror, the great Korean director Bong Joon Ho (Parasite) was asked about AI and gave a colorful two-pronged response: “My official answer is, AI is good because it’s the very beginning of the human race finally seriously thinking about what only humans can do. But my personal answer is, I’m going to organize a military squad, and their mission is to destroy AI.” The first part of Bong’s answer applies well to Pluribus, which isn’t specifically a show about AI, but which does ask viewers to think about the value of humanity in the face of a more uniform, homogenizing threat.
