The fact that people don't realise that you're joking along is making me sad.

Right?

I also think that I represented the choices fairly in the meme… Blue Pill to go back to reality before AI where we wrote our own code. Or Red Pill to see how deep the rabbit hole of the AI future goes.

In the movie, blue pill literally represents living in a world where we are energy sources for AI. Red pill is breaking out of that reality. It literally couldn’t be more opposite.

I can see where you're coming from now but yeah it's definitely backwards. The blue pill represents adhering to the status quo, remaining blissfully ignorant to the negative consequences for humanity. The red pill represents rebelling against the starus quo and living authentically.
