Ep. 64 - Ariadne’s Thread - (Blade Runner)

E 2020-10-11

In this episode we dive into the 1982 Ridley Scott classic Blade Runner (based on the Philip K. Dyck novel Do Androids Dream Of Electric Sheep?). We talk about the nature of personhood, the Turing Test, where we think Plato got things wrong, and what it means to treat another being as a person. This is one of our more philosophically heavy episodes; so be forewarned! Enjoy!

Additional Spoilers:

There are several spoilers for the movie Ex Machina and the show Westworld in this episode.
