In this final entry in our Artificial Intelligence series, Patrick and Jaime are joined by contributing hosts Micah Greene and Peter from the Midwest. It's been a few years since we've hosted an episode diving into Joi and Rachael. What better way to end this series than a discussion around what might be arguably the most endearing and incendiary characters found in both Blade Runner and Blade Runner 2049? Join us for an intense and in-depth discussion.

In this episode, Jaime and Patrick come together to discuss the Baseline Test Machine as seen in Blade Runner 2049. How relevant is the baseline test? How close are we as a society to using this kind of technology? Are we using early versions of it right now? We tackle these questions and more in what was a very satisfying episode to record. We hope you enjoy!
Jaime references a Baseline test machine that you can purchase and assemble. The link for that is https://www.yaymonsters.com/shop/baseline/

Artificial Intelligence has long been a hotly debated topic. What are the implications of a society augmented by A.I.? What is A.I.? Will A.I. save humanity from itself, or will it destroy it? In this episode, Jaime & Patrick tackle the question of A.I. and how its iterated in our real lives and on film. This is part one of a series of discussions as we lead into the 40th anniversary of Blade Runner.

In this episode, Patrick, Peter and Jaime come together to discuss the death of Vangelis. From his score for Chariots of Fire, to Blade Runner, and 1492: Conquest of Paradise, Vangelis has held his own, creating musical tapestries that have kept their own orbit from the moment he began making music. Join us as we talk about the legacy of Vangelis, and the space he leaves behind.
