Artificial intelligence and robotics experts travel to Japan for a laboratory project. A car accident occurs when his wife is forced to laugh. The scientist who loves his wife reserves the file of his dying wife, and resurrecting his wife becomes the driving force in the Japanese laboratory.

The first generation of robots has the intelligence of only 5 years old, and the second generation of robots has the intelligence of 15 years old. There have been breakthroughs in artificial intelligence, but there is still a big gap in robots. Emotional, jealous, lost, and even committed suicide after making an accidental mistake and the original was demolished.

The perfect third generation has a near-perfect artificial intelligence and body, and has the foundation to carry the consciousness of the deceased wife, but the self-consciousness of the third generation with self-consciousness needs to be erased. The philosophical discussion of material relations, and whether human existence has a consciousness that is divorced from the material basis, is the proposition of solving the proposition of life and death. And whether artificial intelligence can still be regarded as a robot after the birth of autonomous consciousness is still profound.

Of course, compared to the discussion between the director and the screenwriter, the plot in the next few minutes is a process of intense brain acceleration, which is also the source of fierce differences and confrontations between various film critics. The return of the third-generation robot after carrying the consciousness of the deceased wife should have been a perfect ending, but the phone call from the wife's file turned everything upside down. When he died, his pregnant wife asked him to listen to his daughter's farewell, making the audience realize that it was a scientist who died. , and then everyone will recall the details. Indeed, the image data is full of hints of a lot of details.

So the first, second, and third generations of robots are the creation of the male protagonist in the world of consciousness? So is the consciousness after death still being squeezed and created by the consciousness preservation company? Thinking of the 996 Good News, the argument of squeezing the dead can stimulate empathy, but such a reversal is no longer about science, but about consciousness and ethics. Reflections and discussions on new scenarios after virtualization.

In any case, it is a wonderful movie. As for the argument that it can't be watched, it can only be speculated whether it is caused by lack of cognition.
