Matt Selman, one of the creative producers of The Simpson, participated in a recent interview and among the topics he addressed are the supposed ‘predictions’ that the series has made. Yes, like when she predicted that Donald Trump would be president of the United States.
In that sense, he commented that there are many people in our society who are ‘obsessed’ with the notion that the program can predict the future using ‘Magic’something that he discards.
According to Selman ‘Personally, I don’t believe in magic. However, the only place where magic is real is in the minds of our fellow human beings.’.
We recommend: The Simpsons were going to have a parody episode of Spirited Away.
Then he highlighted ‘the reality is that The Simpsons’ predictions can be attributed to the basic understanding of two subjects; history and mathematics.
The producer highlighted ‘If you study history, you will be able to ‘predict’ the future because human foolishness tends to repeat itself’. That is something that is sadly true.
Matt Selman stated ‘If you study mathematics, you know that if the show literally makes more than a thousand jokes in almost 800 episodes,’ it would be statistically impossible not to create material that would overlap with what would happen later in real life.’.
The producer highlighted ‘but people prefer the simple answer; ‘Magic”. He also warned about something that can happen and that is resorting to Artificial Intelligence or AI to make false predictions of The Simpson.
Matt Selman explained that we live in an era of ‘digital disinformation’and that is why the predictions of The Simpsonwhich he calls ‘coincidences’ They don’t have much meaning.
Especially in times when anyone can invent one with AI. In this regard, Selman said ‘and good people, but easy to deceive, will believe it because they really want it to be true’. So the team in charge is aware of this growing problem.
