very informative, i had only a vague idea about all the weird eugenics connections, but it's a bit shocking that it apparently goes back all the way to the "founding" of silicon valley.

the usage of "ai" generated footage leaves a bitter aftertaste though. i sort of get it's used deliberately to illustrate the weirdness and sloppiness of the whole thing. but i still find it odd for a project to clearly show the myriad ways of how ai is bad, only to use it themselves. not a choice i would have made.
