The tittle
works perfectly well with this new article, first of all with the fact I didn’t
write anything on my blog for a good 2 months. And more importantly with the
theme of today’s post, I hope everyone understood it with the more than famous
quote “I will be back” form… (Suspense) TERMINATOR.
The terminator
series is an American science fiction franchise created by James Cameron and
Gale Anne Hurd. For those who never heard of it (where you living under a
rock?) or those who just don’t remember the
story ( the first one came out in 1984, so it is surely understandable), here
is a really concise summary: The
machines takes over the world in the future, directed by the artificial
intelligence Skynet, his only mission is the annihilate humanity, he develops human-like-cyborg
assassins: Terminators. A man John Connor is the head of the resistance to free
humanity. So Skynet send a Terminator (played by Arnold Schwarzenegger in the
past to kill John Connor’s, when she was pregnant of him, preventing the
resistance from ever being created.
Why did I
choose to speak about these movies? First because it is a classic, secondly the
fifth Terminator is supposed to come out this year. And lastly, a way more interesting
reason, is to see how even in 1984, people were already not comfortable with
A.I. (artificial intelligence).
In these series
the A.I. are threating humanity, they took over the power of their creator, and
want to earth to themselves, isn’t it in an exaggerated way, what we are still
afraid of 30 years after the release of the first movie? Of course nowadays, we
are not afraid of robots killing ourselves, but may be more in the taking over
the power. Humans are creating robots more and more performants, in Japan a
whole hotel is managed by robots, so they can replace us in some tasks. I personally
don’t think as it as a scary for my life or humanity kind of think, but as a
creepy thing of course. Were it not about the fact that A.I. will probably
think way faster than us, thus be way more ‘intelligent’ than us, I wouldn’t
believe at all these theory of them being superior to us.
A.I. has
always been hardly accepted by the public, even more with this movie, but I do
think that is 50 years, we will be seen as we see people who used to be scared,
or not accepting electricity or micro-wave. It is just another step in the development
of technology for me. So will A.I. be accepted/ used by the most in a certain
time?
Let me know what you think of A.I. in the
comments below, don’t hesitate to subscribe, it’s free. Again it is just a just
point of you. Till’ next time!
