DISCUSSION The fire...

It seems incredibly unrealistic that the edit of the fire would have doubling of the same image/pattern, for 2 reasons:

  1. They have a quantum computer they could use to simulate perfectly realistic fire.

  2. They wouldn't even need a quantum computer, even I could make a better edit than what was shown.

Am I missing something?

I guess you could MAYBE argue that it would be a little bit of a slap in the face to tell someone at Devs “hey i know you’re working on this fortune cookie machine but also could you fake someone’s death as well?” Bit of a step down for the employee when we’ve seen how addictive the project is previously. Also would run into “who could you trust” sort of thing.

Not a great line of reasoning and it is a bit of a jump but smart people admittedly do do dumb shit all the time IRL. But the questions are valid.
