Black Mirror’s vision of ChatGPT

Liam Price | Monday, January 23, 2023

I’ve been on a “Black Mirror” phase since winter break and there’s a special episode, titled “Be Right Back,” which we must reflect on due to Black Mirror’s trademark “predicting the future” abilities.  It’s a tragedy, at least in how it felt.

Reflections on ‘Black Mirror’

Matthew Macke | Friday, November 11, 2016

It’s trendy to compare Netflix’s British techno-dystopian series “Black Mirror” to the classic American horror show “The Twilight Zone.” The comparison is fair, as both feature psychological horror plots with a concluding moral lesson, but it’s a comparison that is probably increasingly irrelevant today.
