    Why is art as a reference point for some new technology a bad thing? We can’t all get a history degree to understand ancient Egypt, so does everyone need a degree in medicine and computer science to understand neuralink?

    I don’t really get the meme. Even if the person is too “stupid” to imagine a technology without Black Mirror to do the heavy lifting, it’s still a useful metaphor to articulate reasons why.

      Because art is made up and people keep quoting things from it as if they were factual things that have happened.
