One of my all time faves. Despite having some truly awful moments of violence, it is intensely humane, utterly gorgeous.
Antonia's Line (1995) is so rich and heartwarming.

Advanced AI is a dangerous technology without safeguards to keep people safe.
And the AI leaders have said, "Oh, maybe we should all get together and voluntarily work something out.”
No, that's not how it works.
This is the moment the government has to step up.

I cared for patients as a pulmonary and critical care physician for twenty years. Now, I’m in Congress fighting for a system that delivers the care you need, when you need it, at a price you can afford. Healthcare is critical infrastructure. It’s time to treat it that way.

And here’s the proof. Almost 120 solutions, with more coming.
