The redemption of super artificial intelligence

I only found out about this film when I watched the trailer advertisement before a certain movie was released. Of course, as a Sci-Fi enthusiast, I am very looking forward to it. Compared with the series of blockbusters that have been shown this year, which are mainly based on plot fighting scenes and are of good quality, such as "The Wolf of Wall Street", "Rapid Calamity", and "Captain America 2", I am still very much looking forward to it. It seems that it will allow me to find similar The films that I experienced in "The Hackers of Different Dimension", "Hawkeye" and "Future Cop" (all three of these films are quite good and recommended to watch), at least that's what the trailer gave me.
In fact, it is true, but it is only limited to the first part. The story is told from flashbacks, and several important characters in the film are successfully introduced through several events and suspense left behind. In fact, the trailer has already spoiled the main line, just as it wants to express - to explore whether the super artificial intelligence research carried out with good intentions will eventually reverse the proposition of human beings. But unfortunately, with the progress of the film, the theme has become more and more blurred. Judging from the confession from the gradually blackening male protagonist, it is more like the male protagonist's environmental protection declaration. What's even worse is that the clue to advance the film turned out to be such a woman scientist's wife who has no scientific literacy, is extremely selfish, and is still infatuated with her age. I didn't feel how deep the relationship between the husband and wife was. The various motives of the heroine were inexplicable and made people sigh. Why did you go early?"
I prefer movies that are fast-paced, not sloppy, and conform to normal logic. Just like last year's "Lost War", the emotional changes of the characters and the occurrence of the plot are traceable, even if it is a sci-fi movie, but It will also make you feel that this kind of thing may indeed happen sometime in the future. Personally, I feel that this is part of the core value of science fiction films, otherwise the audience will be very easy to play, it is better to make it into a magic film so that it can be free and unscrupulous. Although this "Transcendental Hacker" has a good beginning, the rhythm in the middle becomes slow, and the later stage is more and more illogical, more and more loopholes are exposed, and some plots make it difficult for the audience to justify themselves.
I feel that the scene in this film is still a little less, and there is little interaction between super technology and people's daily life. In the middle and late stages, the main event location will basically be transferred to a desert town. It can't help but make people think that the crew is saving money. From this, I think Niu Cha's super-powerful male protagonist is more like a scholar who lives in his own world, but he is more ambitious. The most impressive scenes are the solar panels on the wasteland, the vision of the metropolis after the power outage, and the forests and lakes that advocate environmental protection in the male protagonist's self-monologue. In fact, I want to plump up the male protagonist's transformed image from the side, but I still can't help asking people to ask, what exactly do you want, Depp. In the film, it is expressed that what the male protagonist wants to do most is to sow the seeds of nanomachines, and then do environmental protection. To talk about loopholes, let’s take a simple example. In the film, the US government is too poor to take care of it. It only sent a team of mercenaries with a few scumbags including an FBI. Why did they go earlier. The act of carrying the copper net to shield the signal of the highly intelligent male protagonist is also quite joyful. Can you be more high-end, you deserve to be bullied by the male protagonist.
There is a problem here, whether the male protagonist after the human-machine integration is still the original male protagonist, it is also said through the mouths of the actors several times in the film. So here we can say that there are three alternatives: 1. Superman has absorbed the memory of his body and disguised himself as the male protagonist; 2. Superman's thinking and the male protagonist's ontology consciousness each have a part; 3. Superman is still the consciousness of the male protagonist. According to the life trajectory of the male protagonist before his transformation, it can be found that these three states are mutually exclusive. But in the film, you will find that when the chronological order progresses to different degrees, the male protagonist presents a state of one, two, three, and at the end, you can't be sure whether the male protagonist sacrifices for love or recuperates. Different from the finishing touch of "Inception", this kind of incomprehensible psychological performance will only make people feel that the hole is too large to be filled.
The following is the main plot of the film. The theme is good, but it lacks an engaging and good script.
The main line of this film can be said as follows: the male protagonist, the female protagonist, a friend of the male protagonist and the old man are scientists who study artificial intelligence. At this time, there is an anti-tech alliance. They are worried that excessive technology will destroy human beings, so they repeatedly If you want these scientists to stop these cutting-edge research, they will not hesitate to use extreme methods. The bomb ended up in the office directly; most of the employees of the old black laboratory were killed by the poisonous cake delivered by the express. The old black man survived because he was busy with work and did not eat it on the spot; and the male protagonist was shot by a gun after attending an academic report. , After the shooter committed suicide, although he missed the key point and survived, but in fact the bullet is some kind of deadly radioactive material, the male protagonist has been exposed to a lethal dose of radiation, and he can only live for a maximum of one month after the doctor's diagnosis. The male protagonist knows that his time is short, and he still wants to do scientific research. He wants to organize the materials and move them to the laboratory. By chance, the heroine discovered that there was an experiment that a scientist had done before uploading monkey consciousness to the computer, so the real turning point of the film began. The infatuated heroine seemed to think that this might be the last straw, so she wanted to hang up on the hero. I used this principle to upload the male protagonist's consciousness before. If it is successful, I might be able to chat with the male protagonist in the future. It's all here, the experiment must be successful, the male protagonist successfully incarnates the DOS version of QQ to chat with the female protagonist, and further stabilizes the female protagonist with his feelings, so that the female protagonist can find more powerful resources for him, such as finance, energy, etc. After helping the heroine's boyfriend in the process to discover this fact, he already felt that their behavior had crossed the line, so he persuaded the heroine to turn off the computer and not continue, but the excitement of reuniting the hero after life and death overshadowed it. All thinking, but angrily expelled the male protagonist friend out of the door. The male protagonist friend went to the bar to drink in depression and was kidnapped by the anti-tech alliance, but in fact, because of their similar positions, the male protagonist friend decided to help the anti-tech alliance to shut down the male protagonist. After the integration of man and machine, the male protagonist has become a variety of cattle, and directly manipulated the stock to help the female protagonist make a lot of money. The anti-tech alliance that received the wind was about to take out their den, but they were late. The female lead had uploaded the male lead's consciousness to the satellite on their way over, and then copied it to all computers within reach. The male protagonist was not idle after his transformation. During this period, he also helped the FBI to search for various prisoners in real time among the massive information. It seemed that he had done a righteous thing. After the female protagonist became rich, under the instruction of the male protagonist, she found a remote town as a base camp, and at the same time fooled some diaosi in the town to work for her. One day after the base was built, the gangsters on the street received a flyer from the Anti-Tech Alliance. They were bewitched and injured the captain of the contractor team. It just so happened that the super-high tech of the male protagonist could show his skills. Everyone put the dying captain on the operating table, and the manipulator The arm injects high-tech nano-robots into its body, and various wounds are miraculously restored, and after treatment, the human body will become infinitely powerful, like a superhuman existence, and the bullet will recover immediately after penetration. can fly. There was a sneak attack by the Anti-Tech Alliance in the middle, and the team members were horrified when they saw such a scene. In fact, the male protagonist has bad intentions. Although the body can recover quickly, these nano-robots implanted in the body actually control the mind and make the receptors become the male protagonist's slave. According to the old man black, he wants to Organize a gang of troops. The news of the foreman's miraculous recovery spread widely, and the male protagonist's underground club quickly became famous in the town, and many people came here admiring it. The laboratory has a lot of high-tech, and later developed a system for human tissue regeneration. Later, the male protagonist copied his real body because the female protagonist thought the male protagonist was not "real" enough. The old man saw the problem at a glance, and before leaving, he secretly shoved a note to the heroine, telling her to run away. The heroine was in a complicated mood at this time. The female protagonist returned to the base, recalled all the previous events, and felt that the man-machine integration of man and machine no longer had the feeling of her previous husband. The female protagonist questioned the male protagonist, but the male protagonist analyzed the female protagonist's emotions with biochemical indicators, which made the female protagonist feel that her last personality and privacy were being peeped, so she broke with the male protagonist, and finally took refuge with the old black man after running away. The government army can't handle this base. In addition to the fact that the injured people can recover immediately, the solar panels can repair themselves. What's more awesome is that the nano-seeds can spread freely in the air on the ground and can reach any place. Is this an out of control rhythm? But the plot won't do that. The male protagonist's friend said that the nanomachine army of the male protagonist can be invalidated by implanting a virus. The female protagonist volunteered to say that the male protagonist only trusts her, and asked the male protagonist friend to inject the virus into her body first. Then he prepared to trick the male protagonist into uploading the female protagonist's consciousness under the pretext of being digitally integrated with the male protagonist, and finally broke the male protagonist's system with a virus. The female protagonist returned to the male protagonist's base after receiving the virus injection. Everyone found that the male protagonist was not fooled. In a hurry, they bombarded the base with cannons. The female protagonist was accidentally bombed. I took it back to the base and uploaded the heroine even though I knew there was a virus. After the hypocritical confrontation, the husband and wife both died in love, and the nano-robots all lost their motivation. Of course, there is still a little suspense at the end. The nanoseeds have not been killed. There are still many in the backyard garden of the male protagonist. Based on the foundation that any seeds in this film have all the information and can be self-replicated, it seems that this matter is not over yet. Immediately recovered, like a Terminator possessed, it was almost impossible to fly.

To sum up, the theme of the film is too large at the beginning, and the plot support in the later stage is not enough and difficult to maintain, so that the theme is scattered, and the two heroines have become the driving clues of the whole film, and there are many weak loopholes in the later stage. There is a lack of stable and continuous good viewing experience, so it can only score 5.5 points. As a traditional sci-fi themed work in the recent period, you might as well watch it.

Transcendence quotes

  • [from the trailer]

    Will Caster: [Distraught] You've changed... have you fallen out of love with me?

    Evelyn Caster: [Reassuring] No

    Will Caster: [Demanding] Have You?

  • Will Caster: It just doesn't make sense. They're afraid of technology because of it's threat to humanity. Yet, they don't flinch at taking a life. So, obviously, they're not big on logic; but, there's no shortage of irony.
