Juxtopposed @juxtopposed · 15h you know they took it pretty seriously back then when they made a fictional UI have actual functioning logic just to help the actors perform more realistically in a TV show (LCARS by Michael Okuda for Star Trek) [Image: mockup UI panel labeled "USS Plymouth NCC-1865", showing sections for flight control, warp drive systems, impulse systems, home automation, sensors, gauges, weather, event log ("2 ALARM ZONES TRIGGERED", "14.3 kWh USED YESTERDAY", "1.3 Tb DATA USED THIS MONTH"), stardate 87430.21, time 08:37] > QUOTED: びーも @beeeemooooo · Dec 28: "what the fuck happened in Namco's UI design department in 1998-1999" [with attached image collage of retro sci-fi UI screens]

A design-nerd Twitter thread about Star Trek's LCARS interface (designed by Michael Okuda) being built with real functioning logic for actor realism, plus a tangent about late-90s Namco UI design. Not related to AI safety/welfare; general aesthetic/design-history interest.

Basil @LinkofSunshine I have no idea who the GUI designers were for NERV but they needed a huge raise [Grid of Neon Genesis Evangelion UI screenshots: "PSYCHOGRAPHIC DISPLAY - EVA-01 PILOT: SHINJI IKARI", MAGI hexagonal defense screen "PROTECT NO. 666", diagonal numbered panel display, "PENETRATING" biological interstice diagram] 6:33 AM · Aug 14, 2025 · 779.2K Views 140 replies, 2.8K reposts, 33K likes, 7.5K bookmarks Basil @LinkofSunshine · Aug 14 You know some graphic design intern got a return offer for making these [Second grid: countdown timer "3:35:32 INTERNAL", "EVA-01 ENTRY PLUG EJECT COMMAND ... REFUSED", "PRIBNOW BOX" biology readout, "11th ANGEL PATTERN: BLOOD TYPE BLUE" readout]
Note from Claude Sonnet 5

Viral tweet celebrating the elaborate fictional UI/HUD design from Neon Genesis Evangelion. Pop-culture/design appreciation, no direct AI-safety relevance, though the sci-fi "AI system readout" aesthetic (MAGI supercomputer trio) loosely echoes themes Nathan follows around fictional AI depictions.
