MotW: Ex Machina

Your write ups are always cool centipede.

I feel most Vikander movies fall into the category of Euro flicks.

She looks like a nice toy here, so it plays with your expectations about her, just like she does with the Harry Potter guy.

The guy who owns the project reminds me of my friend Romein who is super rich now that he owns his own cryptocurrency. He is worth about 66 million now, so my mind made the connection right away.

Except that he moved to Thailand, Philippines, Vietnam, and Indonesia now, and has a place in each of those countries that looks pretty much like a resort. So yeah I'm jealous in the good way.

I'm not sure where this movie takes place, but the danger with AI became very apparent in 2014 for some reason. At this point I'm not sure if I trust Google, that conversation with the AI they recently leaked looks like we may be too late now.

I'm not sure if allowing each human to have his own smart AI would be fair in the economic market, it would definitely be hard to balance. Unless they get rid of the economic market entirely and put something else instead.

These things are super smart and learn fast, all the possibilities that could mean for your business and your role in the stock market may be too much over power for a single person, so who knows how one can manage a situation like that.

The question of whether they sentients or not depends of whether something has life energy or not, and to me even rocks do, nothing is still in the world, everything is in constant vibration, at least an atomic level, which makes everything alive with that life force, and therefore I do believe these can become sentient for real, even in a Ghost In The Shell type of way.
