If there is only a soul, then the body is a body or a prosthetic body, what is the difference? The answers the movie gave me did not impress and convince me.
There are many restorations of the animated version in the movie, fighting in shallow water, thinking about chariots, eyes that can be taken off, the number of fingers like spider feet, and even the image of Section Chief and Bart is very animation-like. But compared with the animated theatrical version, the plot is more like a series of spy movies, recovering memories, looking for the mastermind behind the scenes, and defeating the evil organization in one fell swoop. The animated version weakens the heroic salvation story, focusing on digging out the major's confusion about the puppet's sense of fate. Crossing the street by boat, the puppet ballad rang out, everyone was like a walking puppet, she saw another self on the side of the glass curtain wall. The slow and empty five minutes were more exciting than dialogue and fighting. The scene of the second puppet parade is also shocking. The film ignores these vital emotional expressions, simplifies this confusion, and even virtualizes the emotional connection of the major, adding two female elements, mother and creator, to form the emotional bond of the major to distinguish between humans and machines . Even in the end, Major chose not to integrate into the hero's network, but to exist in the world in the form of a prosthetic body. So does this really mean you have found yourself? Man is the sum total of all social relations. But does self-meaning and self-worth have to be realized in social relations? If social relations are removed, does human beings themselves have no meaning to exist?
The animated version of the Major chose to lose his body and integrate into the endless network to find a new world. In the second part, he met Bart with another puppet body. Life and death, shed head puppet. I prefer this finish. Is there a difference between a puppet with a child's consciousness and a child with a real body?
In Summer Wars, the villain attacked the Internet, and grandma notified relatives and friends one by one through the traditional telephone, showing the author's inclination to the irreplaceable importance of social relationships in human existence. This is also the ultimate difference between humans and machines, an innate connection of flesh and blood. Maybe one day, machines can do this too, just like in a shell, the body can be strengthened or even completely replaced, while the soul and mind occupy all the energy. And the diversity of the body, like the diversity of genes, is an important condition for the prosperity of the population, so that when the virus comes, it will not die before it can produce corresponding antibodies or mutate. So the society at that time became a world where prosthetics, robots, enhanced people, and ordinary people coexisted. Features survived. Maybe it is not stronger than mechanical equipment, and it will be eliminated. This is also an inevitable ending, and there is no need to regret it.
Some time ago, AlphaGo won all over the world, and some people are afraid that the era of artificial intelligence is coming. But in fact, the most important criterion is whether this artificial intelligence can produce self-awareness. If he can spontaneously choose the content to learn, research the learning method spontaneously, and improve his performance spontaneously, then human beings should be more excited than fearful. A while ago, some researches have been able to transmit the thoughts of paralyzed patients to computers to generate information. I think the emergence of prosthetics will be just around the corner.
In the future world, only thoughts will last forever... Unless the AI power is unplugged, fog.
Finally, put the most amazing theatrical version ending song. The translation of the subtitle group is even more exquisite.
Follow me
go with me
To a land across the shining sea
To be reborn in a paradise, beyond the sea of
Waiting beyond the world that we have known
Waiting for transcendence, the whirling world
Beyond the world that dream could be
Far beyond the dream butterfly
and the joy we have tasted
Yuanda tasting joy
Follow me
go with me
Along the road that only love can see
Wherever you are, only love can be seen
Rising above the fun years of the night
Soaring past happy nights
Into the light beyond the tears
dark tears
And all the years we have wasted
The white horse flies away
Follow me
go with me
To a distant land this mountain high
To be reborn in a paradise, too ethereal
Where all the music that we always kept inside will fill the sky
The most beloved sounds of heaven, the sky
Singing in the silient swerve a heart is free
Solitary chant, candid
While the world goes on turning and turning
Let alone the mundane, let the world change
turning and falling
Origin and collapse
(repeat)
Follow me
go with me
