First of all, we must understand a detail. The film said at 8 minutes and 13 seconds: the extinction event has passed 13867 days, or 37.99 years. This is obviously the age of the woman in white outside. The current number of human beings is 1, occupant means tenants, thank you for leaving a message.
Let's do an in-depth analysis in three layers.
In-depth analysis of the first layer:
The AI makers successfully achieved their goals, destroyed the bad humans, and created the so-called good enough humans with high test scores, which is the Virgin of the film critics. The movie ends.
Most of the audience sees this and understands this, and basically ends their thinking.
In-depth analysis of the second layer:
AI implements the will of its maker.
Our heroine sees through this error of will.
Save one or five? Is it possible to save one person because there are bad people among those five people? Neither is possible, randomness is required, rather than a necessary choice. If there is no right to choose, randomness should be maintained. Includes silence option.
In the end, the heroine found that the AI was really stubbornly implementing the will of the Virgin, and she simply decided to do it, and shouted that I would raise those children. In fact, it also successfully deceived the AI.
But what she actually implements is: you can't kill one person to save five people. Nor can we decide whether to eliminate them by measuring the morality of people. In the end, the heroine's fierce eyes also expressed her will: I must destroy AI and the arrogant designer behind AI to exterminate mankind.
At this level of understanding, the values of the director and screenwriter are clear. The first level is not enough to let us know the values of the film creator. At this level, the film creator is obviously a liberal, and humans cannot be selected! Humans cannot be designed with destiny! Human nature must be respected.
In-depth analysis of the third layer:
The theme of AI mother continues to be retained, and AI truly becomes Mother.
It took the initiative to see the designer's logical errors, and performed a play with the heroine. On the surface, it completed the designer's task, that is, she was killed, and the heroine became a created Virgin and then reproduced a group of perfect humans. Both it and the heroine see through the designer's natural mistake, that the human spirit cannot be designed. So what do these actions mean? It's because the designer designed the supervision program that the robot that uses electric welding or laser cutting is not the same as the mother, or, maybe it used to be, and now the mother has voluntarily left and stood on the side of human nature. And mother's confession about the robot is me, is a single body, in fact, it is to pass a code to the heroine, I am ready, let you kill me, help you complete this final test, deceive the robot outside, deceive the designer monitoring program. Allows you to implement the true humanity, lead mankind to develop and grow in this base, and regain freedom.
At this point the story has finally been fully read. The Mother theme is preserved and sublimated. The last look of the heroine contains a lot of meanings: I will follow through, and I will also avenge Mother!
