As artificial intelligence is advancing on a mega scale, Vince Gilligan, best known for making Breaking Bad, seems not to be a fan of it.

This is what explains the credits of his new show, which he directs, Pluribus: “This show was made by humans.” 

“I hate AI. AI is the world’s most expensive and energy-intensive plagiarism machine,” the filmmaker tells Variety.

The director continues, “I think there’s a very high possibility that this is all a bunch of horseshit. It’s basically a bunch of centibillionaires whose greatest life goal is to become the world’s first trillionaires. I think they’re selling a bag of vapor.”

Despite this, Vince says he has no fear of AI as it gains a footprint in the industry. “My toaster oven isn’t suddenly Thomas Keller because it heats up a delicious pizza for me.”

“But his sci-fi brain buzzes at the looming threat of the singularity, or when AI develops a true sentience that has its own soul, and therefore its own identity.”

“If they ever achieve that, then the whole discussion of slavery has to come back into the forefront of the conversation,” Gilligan says. “These trillionaires are going to want to make money on this thing that is now conscious.”

“Is it then a slave? At that point, it is a truly sentient being, and these Silicon Valley assholes are going to monetize this against its own will, right?” Vince concludes.

Meghan Markle’s return to acting has been dubbed another “reinvention” by a royal commentator

Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex, is set to make a cameo appearance in Jason Orley’s Close Personal Friends. She will play herself in the small role, which is a return tot he screen for the duchess after seven years of hiatus.

Meghan exited the entertainment industry before tying the knot with Prince Harry in 2018. At the time, she played Rachel Zane on hit legal drama Suits.

YouTube star, Leilani of Barbados, told the Express: “I think she’s been practising acting for the five years or so as she’s been cosplaying business women, philanthropists, trad wives or whatever is trending at the moment.”

She added, “Meghan has never been known as a big screen actress. She’s a cable TV actress. This is not a comeback into acting by any means, but instead her millionth reinvention.”

Leilani went on to declare Meghan “unwatchable, un-listenable, and unbearable.”

According to a source, Meghan is dipping her toes into the entertainment industry to see how things go.

“This is a massive moment for Meghan and signifies a return to doing what she truly loves. She has been swamped with offers but this one felt right.

“It is Meghan’s way of gently putting her toe back in the water and seeing how she enjoys being back on set. Everyone involved is super-excited, and have been sworn to secrecy about her involvement,” they added.
