The tech world's response to the public's rejection of the profit potential of NFTs (i.e. getting rich by attaching I.P. value to ephemeral digital bullshit) is the embrace of the nihilistic potential of AI (i.e. making everyone else poor by reducing all I.P. value to ephemeral digital bullshit).

Can you even say that 'Furiosa' is a prequel? Immortan Joe is already in his costume and his empire completely established by the time she arrives--essentially Furiosa walks into the same world as 'Fury Road', meaning her character had no impact on its creation. No need to atone in the original.
