The main reason is that the idea of this film is very good. The film and television work itself does not necessarily have to solve the problems raised by itself. Sometimes it's good to just ask your own questions, and let the audience, or humans, solve these problems by themselves.
For example, what this American TV series put forward: If there is no intelligence and computing power beyond ordinary people, there is no need for these robots to exist at all. But if they have superhuman intelligence, then security is an issue that must be considered. And it would be terrifying to give them the emotional ability to learn and grow on their own while giving them superior intelligence.
Since the Industrial Revolution, the development and application of human science and technology has entered a stage of rapid progress. The development of the earth is the result of human collective consciousness. It is not difficult to see from the current film and television works that post-artificial intelligence will definitely appear. But what state should human beings limit the intelligence level of artificial intelligence to? This is a problem we will face sooner or later. This drama puts the problems that may occur in the future in front of everyone with a long-term perspective. Let's think about it. The meaning of existence has been reached. Then the rest, we need to solve by ourselves.
But from a story perspective. The sacrifice at the end is certainly a very moving one. But the whole story really doesn't have enough heart. And the whole story is actually enough for a movie, there is absolutely no need to make it so long. After doing it, fast-forward and still can understand it. So definitely procrastination. And no intention. The story itself is not mind blowing. It's just a really good idea.
