View in my blog: http://www.tianya8.net/2006/04/blog-post_16.html Some thoughts on "The Hackers of Different Dimension": 1. This film is about "I think, therefore I am". A vulgar rendition of a Descartes quote. In order to find out the truth, the male protagonist of the film has to shuttle between reality and virtuality, and finds that in their eyes, these virtual electronic circuits originally have real world experience, thus creating a first-level thinking collision between reality and virtuality. . 2. What is truth? Is this proposition, which is usually proved to be unnecessary, a false proposition, or a paradox? The problem may not be what is real, but that people can never distinguish between real and virtual. Just like people can't tell the difference between dreams and reality, a person who is too easy to dream will mess up his jet lag, just like Bruce in "Twelve Monkeys" can't tell the world is real in the shuttle between the past and the future, That is an illusion. 3. Consciousness, especially self-awareness, continues to be mentioned in this sci-fi film. How does a robot, an AI (artificial intelligence), become a human? This seemingly absurd sci-fi puzzle may seem far away, but it's not necessarily so. People who have played online games all hope that the virtual characters and NPCs in the game have more artificial intelligence, and hope that they can have the ability to respond and self-judgment according to their senses. When this ability is large enough for self-recognition, How do we view them? Are they just puppets they control with their own mouse and keyboard, or are they hacked by us? 4. The connotation of this film is still very deep, but it is a little superficial in expression. The metaphysical thinking mode has the essence of horror movies - people's disillusionment with reality - how does the heroine in the film in 2024 prove that her world is not another "different dimension"? 5. After watching the movie, I remembered Zhou Guoping's "Fables of Life": I dreamed that I saw God brushing his teeth by a small stream, and I told God that you were in my dream. God turned around and smiled and said to me, you are wrong, you are in my dream, once my dream wakes up, you will not exist.
