I would talk to Mickey7's dead grandpa
Me
Specifically, 14 year old me.
Just any dead grandfather? Not too fussy?
Good question. Yeah the grandfather of a guy at work
My grandfather or grandmother, I can't decide. Ben Franklin. Carl Sagan.
Your grandfather and grandmother are Ben Franklin and Carl Sagan? That's remarkable in innumerable ways if true.
Different take; my grandparents were terrible when they were alive. At this point, I'd choose my wife. An hour laughing and joking with my wife with no other responsibilities sounds awesome.
Elon Musk.
Wait. Hear me out. The power to summon someone, hold them for an hour and force them to be conscious is really significant. Sure, there's nothing I could say to have any immediate effect. I'd just mention that he should divest his wealth to the poor or else when my hour is up, someone else is going to summon him. It'll keep happening until he's no longer the wealthiest person. Then, keep going down the list.
I mean, you'd have the opportunity to do something far funnier, and then you can spend the extra 50 minutes decorating your work.
grandparents for sure 💔
Mr Rogers. In my mind one of Americas greatest offerings to the world. Just a genuinely amazing person.
past.
My dad tells these stories about how my great grandpa used to joke and pull pranks on the family. I wish I could have met him in person.
That or getting an hour to pick Alan Turing's brain. He'd probably hate the current generation of "AI" as much as I do.
For me it's about having a conversation with someone who lived history rather than just reading about it.
