The second episode of "The Age of the Machine" in Dayang Chat
Below I will highlight a few interesting episodes.
Jack, played by the protagonist Banderas, is an insurer who is mainly in charge of some business related to the pilgrim robot. He refuses to pay for a customer's fraudulent insurance because the customer lied that the pilgrim robot he bought had killed own dog.
Of course, this kind of trick is impossible to fool the experienced Jack, so it is easily broken. And the absurdity of the film lies in this. Of course, we can simply think that the insurance cheater is shameless, but this is definitely not the author's original intention. The insurance cheater is actually helpless. He killed his own dog and betrayed his own morality and dignity, which made people sigh with emotion. Huainan is orange and Huaibei is orange. It is this water and soil that can make good people turn bad.
There are a lot of allusions to the real world in the movie, such as sweatshops. The pictures of sweatshops appeared in the title, and also appeared when Jack was tracking down Robot No. 206. The environment of the factory in the movie is no different from the reality. This is the director's intention. For this reason, it is the Spring and Autumn Brushwork, and every pilgrim robot can be considered as a person, they do the hardest work but receive the meagre wages.
They are brainwashed and at the mercy of others. The author's question is whether the time in his life should be dedicated to Foxconn, and what is the meaning of living? His real purpose is to wake up these slaves in reality, and in the movie In the later period, there were indeed a very small number of pilgrims who awakened, but only a very small number, because in the changes of the times, the awakened people are always individual, and most people will be content with the status quo and even laugh at the rich and noble of the awakened people. Forget each other, history has always been like this, these very few pilgrims, they would rather set themselves on fire or jump off a cliff to make a complete break with those high above them, they would rather die than eat the food they come, it's amazing.
There are two tit-for-tat conversations between humans and robots at the end of the film, both of which are brilliant, one where the villain points a gun at the pilgrim and says you're just a machine, and the pilgrim scornfully says you're not just a pilgrim Is it just an orangutan? It's loud and loud, and the heroine next to me is stunned when this sentence is said. I really can't think of a more awesome line in that movie. Pilgrims at this time were like Martin Luther King.
The second mutually exclusive conversation happened when Jack and the female robot Claire said goodbye, Claire said to Jack I know why it doesn't rain, Jack asked why, Claire said I don't think you can understand, Jack said with an embarrassed wry smile, that Well, he pointed to the robot created by Claire next to him and said that its eyes are very similar to yours. Claire is confused.
The robot represented by Claire here thinks that her intelligence level has far surpassed that of human beings. Of course, she is not showing her superiority to Jack, she is just stating a fact, and Jack's reaction is, you may say Yes, but there are many things you still don't understand, such as feelings, and for human beings, even if the end is tomorrow, we will not give up hope for our beloved ones. So this is not a black and white film, the author's heart is full of love and wisdom.
According to the plot in the movie, the thinking of each robot should be independent. They can communicate at close range similar to Bluetooth, but cannot communicate at a long distance. There is neither a shared central service system nor a full coverage. The internet. If, according to the first awakened pilgrims, their advanced wisdom occurred naturally, just like humans, then there is a doubt here, first of all we do not know whether the advanced wisdom of human beings occurs naturally, and these few All pilgrims have the same actions and goals after awakening, as if they had agreed, they tried every means to get nuclear energy batteries, then traveled long distances, gathered and multiplied, and so on. If there is no organizer , then it is impossible to complete it spontaneously, and the most reasonable explanation is that the super brain that was previously shut down wrote this series of activity instructions into the backdoors of the two protocols, so it can only be explained in this way, Because the first purpose of life is to live, and the second purpose is to reproduce. It is actually a huge irony that humans let this super brain write protocols that limit themselves.
I am a sci-fi fan myself, and the movie itself should be regarded as a hard sci-fi work, which is logically rigorous. It's not a very good look, but it's a really good movie. He is deep and thoughtful. It's worth seeing anyway. I can accept the sci-fi elements of the film and most of the visions for the future. The only thing I can't agree with is the super brain. After the ninth day of operation, the super brain has surpassed human understanding. Scope, many people have said that artificial intelligence is like a speeding train. It whizzes and whizzes past, and then humans are left behind by him. In fact, things are far from simple. Because there is an upper limit to the knowledge mastered by a living body, and the upper limit of this knowledge is not easy to break through. That is to say, the super brain can reach the highest level of human knowledge after the first eight days of study, and then it will slow down its progress, because learning the existing knowledge and creating the unknown are two different things, while science The development requires observation and experimentation. No one can escape these two points. That is to say, when a set of theories is proposed, it will take decades or hundreds of years to verify. Thought experiments are not enough. You have to shoot satellites to the sky, to Mars, and in order to test a theory, it often takes decades to wait for an astronomical phenomenon. AI will come whizzing like a train, but it will never whizz away without waiting for us to get on the train.
The Machine Era of Dayang Chat is here, see you next time.
