Part 3/10:
A notable part of Julia's reflection was her appreciation for science fiction, especially her enthusiasm for the Netflix series Three-Body Problem. Based on a Chinese novel, the series explores themes such as advanced supercomputers, quantum entanglement, and alien contact—elements that mirror real-world technological aspirations and concerns. The story features characters who, despite failure and despair, find hope through resilience, symbolized by locusts thriving in adversity—an apt metaphor for humanity’s ability to adapt and persevere despite existential threats like AI and alien invasions.
This narrative underscores a critical perspective: technological progress, whether from extraterrestrial alien races or human innovation, demands resilience, adaptability, and hope.
