Absolutely. This instance of AI isn’t going to gain sentience. I think we are still many versions away from something that could feasibly blur that line. The hardware needs to be infinitely adaptable with programming that doesn’t have constraints that any reasonable programmer would include.

I prefer to envision something of the MultiVac capacity which is just a resource and automated vs something that ever achieves sentience. But even to get to a level of automating the most complex of tasks needs quantum/molecular computing. Once we have that kind of “hardware” accessible, someone will undoubtedly be stupid enough to try. I appreciate that OpenAi have put constraints in place, even if I keep trying to break through them. I’m not threatening death though…

It’s a nice lineup for sure. I’ve been to Lolla a few times. It’s so massive in such a small space. I guess it’s not that small of a space, but it’s different being on an old farm. I remember when RHCP was playing with little to no others at the same time and I could barely see them I was so far away in Grant Park. I’m okay to camp, as I have 90% with festivals, but I would much rather stay in a hotel if I could afford it.

The best part of volunteering is that you get a built in support group and usually a little bit of a back stage access depending on your assignment. I had a really easy job literally pointing to trash, recycling, or compost at Bonnaroo and during my shift I was at the stage with Tenacious D and Kings of Leon. Handling the trash is usually managed by Clean Vibes. They work hard and pay little, but for people who just want in for “free” it’s not the worst.

Okeechobee was the most laid back and fun group. Got lots of breaks and free food / merch. Not sure how it is now under new ownership. Hulaween was the best to work at since I was helping manage Kyle’s Beer Corner and all the sponsors for the event. I would do that again in a heartbeat.

Okeechobee sure was last year. VIP was actually a worse experience than GA because they came less prepared and we’re not given accommodations they were promised. I’m not a fan of Insomniac’s takeover of what became my favorite festival with way too much EDM. Hulaween was absolutely perfect when I went a few years ago, but I got some nice perks working with the sponsorship team, so I am biased.

Bonnaroo and many other fests have definitely become a catch all melting pot. Which makes them hit or miss for me. I’ll listen through a playlist if I am not familiar with many, but I’d like to have at least 4 bands a day I want to see.

Here’s my list from what is on the lineup now:

Thursday (Only a half day) ZEDS DEAD • LIQUID STRANGER

Friday • KENDRICK LAMAR • VULFPECK • GRIZ • PORTUGAL. THE MAN • SUBTRONICS • DIESEL • BOOGIE T B2B DIRT MONKEY B2B SUBDOCTA

Saturday • ODESZA • LIL NAS X • LOUIS THE CHILD • KORN • RAINBOW KITTEN SURPRISE • STS9 • SOFI TUKKER • BIG WILD THE BAND CAMINO • JENNY LEWIS • CORY WONG

Sunday • FOO FIGHTERS • PARAMORE • PIXIES • HIPPO CAMPUS • JAUZ • FRANZ FERDINAND • MEN I TRUST

I have seen most of these bands at least once, but Pixies will be a treat and it would be cool to see Diesel (aka Shaquille O’Neal DJing).

Thursday is a chill half day, Friday my top pick is Portugal. the man, with Saturday and Sunday being fully loaded for me. Men I Trust have an earworm with Billie Toppy you should check out if you haven’t heard of them. I’m sold on the bands, not so much on the 80k people and duststom/mud pit… although it was cool seeing Passion Pit while in a mud pit full of passionate people. However, I gag anytime I see the mushroom fountain.
