The Creator came out last year and is by far my favorite Ai movie. The Creator is a movie about a soldier in the future who goes undercover in Asia, where they are cohabitating with AI lifeforms against America’s wishes. He is undercover in Asia because he is on a mission to find the creator of higher Ai or Nirmata. He is sent to marry a woman who is believed to be the daughter of Nirmata and ends up falling for her and impregnating her. Late in the pregnancy an accident occurs and she and the child are believed to be dead, so when the soldier returns to Asia in a later mission he is shocked to see evidence of his wife being alive and this sends him on a hunt to find her. On this hunt, he finds a child with the capabilities to shut down a ship that threatens the lives of many Ai lifeforms and the people that they cohabitate with.
The ship’s name is the NOMAD and is an American-owned spacecraft that sends focused beams that kill anything that they land on. Eventually, he finds his wife and shuts down the ship in an attempt to save the people in Asia. This movie exposes us to an alternate future reality where some cultures are tolerant of what Ai will become. The AI machines are lifelike and seem to present real emotions.. one of the instances being an AI robot watching a stripper Ai robot on a hologram and imitating a typical guard with a cigarette. Instead of the traditional approach that gives the impression that we should be scared of Ai, and Ai is the” end of the Human Race”, we find ourselves in an alternate future reality where cohabitation with Ai is possible.
The situations that play out in this movie are somewhat realistic, in the sense that I can see America framing someone else for something that they did as an excuse to wage war on foreign land. I can also see inter-species relationships potentially playing out, as well as some other small details in the movie. This movie gives a new perspective to what AI can bring as opposed to the view that we typically get of writers only wanting to show the bad side. Overall, the movie’s cinematics were amazing, and the storyline kept me engaged the whole time.
