First it was a book, then it was a groundbreaking movie… that's right it's Solaris. After having discussed the Stanislaw Lem novel in the previous episode, David and Tamler try to make contact with Andrei Tarkovsky's 1972 classic film. We talk about all the ways Tarkovsky's adaptation reflects and diverges from the source material. We also discuss how to interpret the ending, opening act (not featured in the novel), the five-minute driving scene, and contrast it with Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey. Plus, we take an AI Compass survey to determine what type of AI archetype we are. <a href="https://bambamramfan.github.io/ai-compass">The AI Compass (quiz)</a> [github.io] <a href= "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solaris_(1972_film)">Tarkovsky's "Solaris"</a> [wikipedia.org]
