I'll just watch you pretend

When watching the film, I subconsciously analyze it from an astrology perspective, and I can clearly see the traces of artificial intelligence imitating, and the unreasonable logic of the film itself: Where does the fear of destruction by artificial intelligence come from? According to the logic of the big data sampling in the film, this is still an imitation of the reflex behavior of life motivation, rather than its own vitality. It would be absurd to use painting to prove that AI is creative - all dot matrix printers would be creative long ago.

The Turing experiment can only prove whether "human beings" can deceive human beings with computers. It is meaningless to explore the origin of life, let alone artificial life. What should I do if Turing is not enough, Wittgenstein comes together - Wittgenstein is a human, and his own way of thinking is actually closer to AI than human beings. But that doesn't mean the reverse is true.

The way the film is shot is interesting. In the beginning, the conversation between humans was so boring that even the focal length of the lens was wrong. But as soon as the robot appeared, the camera stabilized and the whole world came alive.

People who don't love themselves pursue love, how can the ending not be sad. In fact, the life illusion of AI is most easily deceived by those "smart" people. Change the illiterate to test, ignore the logic of AI at all, and slap it over and it will be over.
