Remember about six years ago there was a TV show called Person of Interest about surveillance cameras and how useful they were? I hated it: predictive programming for right now.

I watched the first season or few. Interesting until it wasn't. A Jonathan Nolan project, brother and collaborator with Christopher Nolan.

Sometimes it's hard to say what is predictive programming and what is inevitable. One could say my grand story has elements of predictive something, but that's because I tried to imagine what the near future would be like - not because I have an agenda to make it happen.

I think the term predictive programming was not a good choice on my part. I can't think of a better term right now but it would mean: a bit of propaganda to ease you into and and make you accept or welcome something that is coming soon. That is the real reason I didn't like POI; it was too obvious that the Hollywood/Deep State liason people were involved.
