[Her recollection] Humans die, but computers don't stop...

This movie is really special.

The film uses a very exaggerated expression, but none of that matters. Importantly, it states a fact that is very different from previous sci-fi perspectives.

This fact, presented in this way, makes me feel terrifying, even more terrifying than the death of The Terminator. That is immortality.

How to interpret it?

Humans are mortal, computers don't, and robots don't.

Before Madam's life, and dutifully recorded every bit, every detail, and even every second emotion of Madam's life. That's why they were created.

And when Madam dies, and don't die. And all the data of the lady before her life became all of them. They naturally inherit the last wishes and obsessions of the lady (human beings), continue to run, and even run forever. In the movie, even if they have been floating in the universe for a century, even if they have become a terrible phagocytosis, they will still exist.

The previous robot sci-fi films always emphasized themes similar to the robot , but this film is different. The and in it are not awakened. They still continue the consciousness of the lady (human), and run on the memory (data) of the lady (human). There is no conscious awakening, but they still make people shudder.

This film is not actually talking about the memories of the lady, but about the memories of and , or the that may run forever and ever.

How do humans deal with this situation?

People die, but computers don't stop...

So, is it necessary to set a self-destruction/self-termination/auto-zero program for the computer/robot?
