Subtitle: So let’s talk about the impact of body (shell) and consciousness (ghost) extraction on values, outlook on life and even human society. The setting is really good, and it looks very cultural, but it’s a bit weird and scary , may be trying to make oriental culture mysterious so that foreigners can be cheated of money. . Ahem, it's also possible that the three-needle zone is like a Chinatown in developed American society.
Well, who made this a question of life and death? In the end, Suzi "falls upright when the line is broken", can you say that she has left this world? Without the support of the body, what does the ghost feel like? Can you really ask for nothing? The film also explores the value of life between humans and conscious dolls. As a prosthetic person in the middle, it is really difficult, so the whole body prosthesis is even more difficult to locate. The film mentions the complex chain of puppets-animals-spiritual puppets-full-body prosthetics-partial prosthetics-human-all-knowing and almighty God. How to choose and how to define the difference in status. Both the doll that was about to explode and the human girl in the machine shouted "help me" to Bart, but Bart rescued the human girl, but shot each other before the doll girl exploded. So it's still the proposition, if the puppet has consciousness, whether the three laws are still immutable. So is the human girl who participated in the incident that caused the doll girl to self-destruct innocent? They don't want to become puppets, so are they innocent of sacrificing the puppets they have become? So Homo sapiens work hard to maintain their own race, and the ghost (consciousness/soul) installed in the shell (doll) is another species, isn't it worth mentioning? "When you see the blood of birds, you are sympathetic, and when you see the blood of fish, you are ruthless. Those who have voice are lucky." So, what is the empathy of Homo sapiens based on? Can you express your thoughts based on whether the other party can speak? What about dolls that can speak even if they are conscious? So what about the law, what categories does it protect?
So science fiction still has to go first, otherwise, when this kind of technology is suddenly thrown in front of human beings, how to face it. Humanities such as consciousness, ethics, culture, politics, economy, etc., have developed very slowly. There are many points worth thinking about and it will take time to digest them slowly. Now it is not just a problem of the shell. The development of artificial intelligence has caused the problem of the direct impact and orientation of technology on ghosts (consciousness).
