What are the best movies dealing with Artificial Intelligence?

[BluBonnet]

Artificial Intelligence seems to have become the biggest gimmick in movies right now.

From what I've read, AI plays an important role in the new Mission: Impossible movie. And The Creator makes it clear in its trailers how much of its story revolves around AI.

What movies do you think have done the best job having AI as a part of the plot?

I suppose we could call 2001: A Space Odyssey the grandaddy of the AI genre.

And more recently it has been used by Steven Spielberg, James Cameron, and also played a major role in one of the Avengers movies.

Ex Machina and Her are probably the two standouts in recent memory.

Not to take this too off topic, but the scaremongering in media, including TV and Movies, of robots and AI I just find ridiculous sometimes. I have built a lifelong career around computer science and engineering and i'm heavily involved with AGP's and prompt engineering. It's a tool like anything else, and the ones to watch are the humans that use it rather than the algorithm.

Stuff like Ex Machina and Her simply wouldn't fold out like it shows

That's just what the AI would say!

James Cameron: "I told you so!!"

‘Terminator’ Director James Cameron On The Rise Of AI: “I Warned You Guys In 1984 & You Didn’t Listen”

James Cameron is weighing in on AI as computer programming continues to mature and become more sophisticated. The director of Terminator made a call back to the film he also co-wrote and that Arnold Schwarzenegger starred in.

“I warned you guys in 1984, and you didn’t listen,” he told CTV News about AI.

The Terminator, released in 1984, is a science fiction film about a cyborg assassin and an artificially intelligent defense network that has become sentient.

“I think the weaponization of AI is the biggest danger,” he added. “I think that we will get into the equivalent of a nuclear arms race with AI, and if we don’t build it, the other guys are for sure going to build it, and so then it’ll escalate.”

Cameron doesn’t think AI will replace writers anytime soon saying, “I just don’t personally believe that a disembodied mind that’s just regurgitating what other embodied minds have said — about the life that they’ve had, about love, about lying, about fear, about mortality — and just put it all together into a word salad and then regurgitate it … I don’t believe that have something that’s going to move an audience.”

He continued, “Let’s wait 20 years, and if an AI wins an Oscar for Best Screenplay, I think we’ve got to take them seriously.”

My favorite about this subject is Bicentennial Man. Robin Williams stars as a robot who quickly develops emotions, while others of his kind do not. Over the course of the next 200 years, he embarks on a personal quest to become an ordinary human being. Its a very good film, that bombed in the box office mainly because the trailer played up all the humor without showing the drama.
