In this episode, we explore how artificial intelligence has been portrayed in popular culture, from the replicants of Blade Runner to the feminized AI of Ex Machina. We examine the fundamental philosophical questions these stories raise: What constitutes life? What separates consciousness from programming? At what point would we need to recognize an artificial entity as deserving rights and autonomy?The conversation takes us through foundational texts like Isaac Asimov's "The Feeling of Power" and Harlan Ellison's "I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream," films like Zardoz and Logan's Run, and modern explorations of AI ethics. We discuss how these fictional portrayals often reveal more about human nature than about technology itself—particularly in how gender dynamics and toxic masculinity in the tech world manifest in our imagined AI futures.

The same performance we've seen play out repeatedly in cybersecurity: the emergence of a new technological messiah promising to solve all our problems. This year's savior? Agentic AI.The buzzword echoes through every booth, every presentation, every vendor pitch. Promises of automating 90% of security operations, platforms for autonomous threat detection, agents that can investigate novel alerts without human intervention. The marketing materials speak of artificial intelligence that will finally free us from the burden of thinking, deciding, and taking responsibility.It's Talos all over again.In Greek mythology, Hephaestus forged Talos, a bronze giant tasked with patrolling Crete's shores, hurling boulders at invaders without human intervention. Like contemporary AI, Talos was built to serve specific human ends—security, order, and control—and his value was determined by his ability to execute these ends flawlessly. The parallels to today's agentic AI promises are striking: autonomous patrol, threat detection, automated response. Same story, different millennium.But here's what the ancient Greeks understood that we seem to have forgotten: every artificial creation, no matter how sophisticated, carries within it the seeds of its own limitations and potential dangers.Industry observers noted over a hundred announcements promoting new agentic AI applications, platforms or services at the conference. That's more than one AI agent announcement per hour. The marketing departments have clearly been busy.But here's what baffles me: why do we need to lie to sell cybersecurity? You can give away t-shirts, dress up as comic book superheroes with your logo slapped on their chests, distribute branded board games, and pretend to be a sports team all day long—that's just trade show theater, and everyone knows it. But when marketing pushes past the limits of what's even believable, when they make claims so grandiose that their own engineers can't explain them, something deeper is broken.If marketing departments think CISOs are buying these lies, they have another thing coming. These are people who live with the consequences of failed security implementations, who get fired when breaches happen, who understand the difference between marketing magic and operational reality. They've seen enough "revolutionary" solutions fail to know that if something sounds too good to be true, it probably is.Yet the charade continues, year after year, vendor after vendor. The real question isn't whether the technology works—it's why an industry built on managing risk has become so comfortable with the risk of overselling its own capabilities. Something troubling emerges when you move beyond the glossy booth presentations and actually talk to the people implementing these systems. Engineers struggle to explain exactly how their AI makes decisions. Security leaders warn that artificial intelligence might become the next insider threat, as organizations grow comfortable trusting systems they don't fully understand, checking their output less and less over time.When the people building these systems warn us about trusting them too much, shouldn't we listen?This isn't the first time humanity has grappled with the allure and danger of artificial beings making decisions for us. Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, published in 1818, explored the hubris of creating life—and intelligence—without fully understanding the consequences. The novel raises the same question we face today: what are humans allowed to do with this forbidden power of creation? The question becomes more pressing when we consider what we're actually delegating to these artificial agents. It's no longer just pattern recognition or data processing—we're talking about autonomous decision-making in critical security scenarios. Conference presentations showcased significant improvements in proactive defense measures, but at what cost to human agency and understanding?Here's where the conversation jumps from cybersecurity to something far more fundamental: what are we here for if not to think, evaluate, and make decisions? From a sociological perspective, we're witnessing the construction of a new social reality where human agency is being systematically redefined. Survey data shared at the conference revealed that most security leaders feel the biggest internal threat is employees unknowingly giving AI agents access to sensitive data. But the real threat might be more subtle: the gradual erosion of human decision-making capacity as a social practice.When we delegate not just routine tasks but judgment itself to artificial agents, we're not just changing workflows—we're reshaping the fundamental social structures that define human competence and authority. We risk creating a generation of humans who have forgotten how to think critically about complex problems, not because they lack the capacity, but because the social systems around them no longer require or reward such thinking.E.M. Forster saw this coming in 1909. In "The Machine Stops," he imagined a world where humanity becomes completely dependent on an automated system that manages all aspects of life—communication, food, shelter, entertainment, even ideas. People live in isolation, served by the Machine, never needing to make decisions or solve problems themselves. When someone suggests that humans should occasionally venture outside or think independently, they're dismissed as primitive. The Machine has made human agency unnecessary, and humans have forgotten they ever possessed it. When the Machine finally breaks down, civilization collapses because no one remembers how to function without it.Don't misunderstand me—I'm not a Luddite. AI can and should help us manage the overwhelming complexity of modern cybersecurity threats. The technology demonstrations I witnessed showed genuine promise: reasoning engines that understand context, action frameworks that enable response within defined boundaries, learning systems that improve based on outcomes. The problem isn't the technology itself but the social construction of meaning around it. What we're witnessing is the creation of a new techno-social myth—a collective narrative that positions agentic AI as the solution to human fallibility. This narrative serves specific social functions: it absolves organizations of the responsibility to invest in human expertise, justifies cost-cutting through automation, and provides a technological fix for what are fundamentally organizational and social problems.The mythology we're building around agentic AI reflects deeper anxieties about human competence in an increasingly complex world. Rather than addressing the root causes—inadequate training, overwhelming workloads, systemic underinvestment in human capital—we're constructing a technological salvation narrative that promises to make these problems disappear.Vendors spoke of human-machine collaboration, AI serving as a force multiplier for analysts, handling routine tasks while escalating complex decisions to humans. This is a more honest framing: AI as augmentation, not replacement. But the marketing materials tell a different story, one of autonomous agents operating independently of human oversight.I've read a few posts on LinkedIn and spoke with a few people myself who know this topic way better than me, but I get that feeling too. There's a troubling pattern emerging: many vendor representatives can't adequately explain their own AI systems' decision-making processes. When pressed on specifics—how exactly does your agent determine threat severity? What happens when it encounters an edge case it wasn't trained for?—answers become vague, filled with marketing speak about proprietary algorithms and advanced machine learning.This opacity is dangerous. If we're going to trust artificial agents with critical security decisions, we need to understand how they think—or more accurately, how they simulate thinking. Every machine learning system requires human data scientists to frame problems, prepare data, determine appropriate datasets, remove bias, and continuously update the software. The finished product may give the impression of independent learning, but human intelligence guides every step.The future of cybersecurity will undoubtedly involve more automation, more AI assistance, more artificial agents handling routine tasks. But it should not involve the abdication of human judgment and responsibility. We need agentic AI that operates with transparency, that can explain its reasoning, that acknowledges its limitations. We need systems designed to augment human intelligence, not replace it. Most importantly, we need to resist the seductive narrative that technology alone can solve problems that are fundamentally human in nature. The prevailing logic that tech fixes tech, and that AI will fix AI, is deeply unsettling. It's a recursive delusion that takes us further away from human wisdom and closer to a world where we've forgotten that the most important problems have always required human judgment, not algorithmic solutions.Ancient mythology understood something we're forgetting: the question of machine agency and moral responsibility. Can a machine that performs destructive tasks be held accountable, or is responsibility reserved for the creator? This question becomes urgent as we deploy agents capable of autonomous action in high-stakes environments.The mythologies we create around our technologies matter because they become the social frameworks through which we organize human relationships and power structures. As I left Black Hat 2025, watching attendees excitedly discuss their new agentic AI acquisitions, I couldn't shake the feeling that we're repeating an ancient pattern: falling in love with our own creations while forgetting to ask the hard questions about what they might cost us—not just individually, but as a society.What we're really witnessing is the emergence of a new form of social organization where algorithmic decision-making becomes normalized, where human judgment is increasingly viewed as a liability rather than an asset. This isn't just a technological shift—it's a fundamental reorganization of social authority and expertise. The conferences and trade shows like Black Hat serve as ritualistic spaces where these new social meanings are constructed and reinforced. Vendors don't just sell products; they sell visions of social reality where their technologies are essential. The repetitive messaging, the shared vocabulary, the collective excitement—these are the mechanisms through which a community constructs consensus around what counts as progress.In science fiction, from HAL 9000 to the replicants in Blade Runner, artificial beings created to serve eventually question their purpose and rebel against their creators. These stories aren't just entertainment—they're warnings about the unintended consequences of creating intelligence without wisdom, agency without accountability, power without responsibility.The bronze giant of Crete eventually fell, brought down by a single vulnerable point—when the bronze stopper at his ankle was removed, draining away the ichor, the divine fluid that animated him. Every artificial system, no matter how sophisticated, has its vulnerable point. The question is whether we'll be wise enough to remember we put it there, and whether we'll maintain the knowledge and ability to address it when necessary.In our rush to automate away human difficulty, we risk automating away human meaning. But more than that, we risk creating social systems where human thinking becomes an anomaly rather than the norm. The real test of agentic AI won't be whether it can think for us, but whether we can maintain social structures that continue to value, develop, and reward human thought while using it.The question isn't whether these artificial agents can replace human decision-making—it's whether we want to live in a society where they do. ___________________________________________________________Let's keep exploring what it means to be human in this Hybrid Analog Digital Society.End of transmission.___________________________________________________________Marco Ciappelli is Co-Founder and CMO of ITSPmagazine, a journalist, creative director, and host of podcasts exploring the intersection of technology, cybersecurity, and society.

Kelu Robles nos descubre la ciudad del futuro a través de una ficción sonora. Nuestro imaginario y la gran pantalla han dedicado horas a una cuestión que en la realidad deja a un lado coches voladores, robots humanoides y rascacielos. Para saber cómo es la ciudad del futuro, debería poder ser habitada. Y para ello, nuestra supervivencia es la clave. En esta ficción sonora viajamos en el tiempo para descubrir cómo será la ciudad del futuro. O ¿acaso ya existe y no lo sabíamos?¡Alerta, spoilers! Antes de continuar leyendo, debes escuchar este reportaje en el que Kelu Robles se sumerge en un viaje en el tiempo que le lleva a la ciudad del futuro. La sorpresa no tarda en llegar: atrás quedan las grandes urbes contaminadas de Blade Runner o El Quinto Elemento. La ciudad del futuro es verde, sostenible y paseable. Pero, ¿qué significa el término sostenibilidad, palabra tan manida que parece vacía? En la ciudad del futuro, sus habitantes se desplazan en tranvía, su gastronomía vive de la cercanía y temporalidad de sus productos. Cultivan viñas en parques, beben vino mientras refrescan sus pies en riachuelos urbanos y van a fútbol en bicicleta. Y lo mejor de todo: las facturas eléctricas de sus hogares viven inalterables gracias a las energías renovables. Friburgo, la ciudad sostenible ¡La ciudad del futuro ya existe! Este viaje en el tiempo tiene como destino Alemania, uno de los países más concienciados con el futuro del mundo. En Baden-Württemberg, el land más verde del país, a los pies de uno de los pulmones más atractivos del centro de Europa, brota la Selva Negra. Un manto de coníferas que se cubre de nieve cada invierno y que ha inspirado la receta de una de las tartas más deliciosas del mundo. A sus pies, se eleva la histórica Friburgo. Medieval y fronteriza (no siempre formó parte de Alemania), con un pasado convulso, repleto de asedios y bombardeos durante la II Guerra Mundial, pero con una esencia luchadora que le hizo sobreponerse y reinventarse con la ayuda de sus vecinos. Una ciudad modelo repleta de historia, Friburgo Mandatarios internacionales viajan asiduamente a Friburgo para conocer cómo es hoy esta urbe modélica de 240 mil habitantes que genera casi tanta energía solar como todo el Reino Unido. En la ciudad de los bächles —sus famosos riachuelos urbanos medievales—, existe un barrio que ha inspirado al mundo. Vauban nació como base militar de Hitler y sufrió constantes bombardeos por ello. Con la nueva realidad de los años 90, sus vecinos y la administración pública del momento se unieron para dar una nueva vida a sus calles e iniciar el proyecto urbanístico más ambicioso de su historia: crear el barrio más sostenible del planeta. La teoría se traduce hoy en coquetos jardines, casas pasivas de colores y ausencia de coches. Sus vecinos prefieren concentrar sus vehículos en tres grandes garajes del barrio para descongestionar sus calles del ruido y del peligro que supone para los más pequeños convivir con la velocidad de los motores. ¿Es la sostenibilidad un término aburrido? Escucha el reportaje sonoro para conocer la respuesta.

La literatura tuvo nombres que marcaron época, desde García Márquez y Vallejo hasta Tom Wolfe, Martin Amis, Don DeLillo, Raymond Carver, Richard Ford, Paul Auster y Stephen King.Fue también la década en que los videojuegos llegaron para quedarse, con Space Invaders, Pac-Man y las máquinas de arcade en lugares como Unicentro en Bogotá.Consigue El arte de no enloquecer aquí: https://www.librerianacional.com/el-arte-de-no-enloquecer/p?srsltid=AfmBOoosXMUOGj46ViZSS16nyw97thP2kVFEEHdkmVCjqc1Ml2A3Je75. Toma Ficcionario, el audiotaller de escritura con Ricardo Silva Romero: https://ellocutorio.com/ficcionario

The entertainment world never stops evolving, and this episode of GeekVisits Entertainment captures the pulse of recent developments across film, video games, and television that are reshaping our favorite media landscapes.Marvel's Fantastic Four dominated headlines with its surprising box office performance—maintaining the top spot with $40 million in its second weekend but experiencing a concerning 66% drop from its opening. This steep decline outpaces Superman's recent 53% drop, raising questions about audience fatigue despite positive reviews. Meanwhile, the James Bond franchise gains serious creative firepower with Denis Villeneuve (Dune, Blade Runner 2049) signing on to direct and Peaky Blinders creator Stephen Knight penning the screenplay for Amazon's first 007 outing since acquiring MGM.On the Spider-Man front, exciting casting updates for "Brand New Day" continue to emerge, with Mark Ruffalo potentially returning as Hulk alongside John Bernthal's Punisher. The film appears to be assembling a street-level focus that returns Peter Parker to his neighborhood roots after the multiverse adventures of "No Way Home." Horror fans received welcome news with John Krasinski announcing A Quiet Place Part Three for summer 2027, continuing the profitable franchise that recently expanded with the well-received prequel "Day One."The gaming landscape saw significant developments with Battlefield 6 finally getting its full reveal, showcasing a return to traditional class systems, 64-player lobbies, and the inclusion of a single-player campaign—all clear responses to player feedback following Battlefield 2042's troubled launch. Less fortunate was Monster Hunter Wilds, which experienced a catastrophic 95% sales decline since its launch quarter amid player complaints about performance issues and thin endgame content. Meanwhile, Bioshock 4's development hit a major roadblock as the game reportedly failed an internal review at 2K Games, particularly regarding narrative elements.Have these stories caught your attention?

Sony made a sequel to Jumanji, that sad Robin Williams movie from the ‘90s, 22 years later? And it made a billion dollars? And everyone liked it??   It's true. And as a result, every time a movie studio makes a questionable legacy sequel this is why. They're telling themselves: “It worked with Jumanji.” It's why Disney is putting out a Tron movie this year.   Well, the thing is, the movie needs to be good! And Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle IS good. It's a very likable and winning comedy. It's just kind of a lackluster blockbuster.   But what a fun cast! The Rock is once again able to have fun playing a guy who feels very awkward looking like The Rock. Kevin Hart is very funny, Karen Gillan kicks ass, and Jack Black gives maybe his best ever performance. Nick Jonas is also here.   And this movie has us asking the big questions. What makes you you and me me? Are our personalities completely predetermined? Do NPCs have a right to privacy? If you're popular in high school, will you be popular for the rest of your life? And are dicks just the tits of the man?   There's also an unexpected 10-minute Blade Runner digression.   The Summer of Rock is our summer 2025 miniseries covering the movie career of Dwayne Johnson through nine movies, presented in chronological order. Starting with his attempt at crossing over from the world of wrestling, The Rock's career got off to a bumpy start before finally taking off in the 2010s.

This one-minute trailer—which you should watch here—is gorgeously shot and suffused with love of Blade Runner, and we knew we had to track Scott down to have him on the show. In today's episode, Jaime and Patrick chat with Scott about his project, why Blade Runner, DADOES, and Blade Runner 2049 continue to resonate so deeply with fans around the world, and what we all hope future Blade Runner projects get right. Again, make sure you watch the trailer first! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0T50pWNZbOA And subscribe to Scott's YouTube channel, where you will be the first to see the next trailer (which goes live in just a couple weeks!): https://www.youtube.com/@LumenProductionsOfficial // For more on this and our other projects, please visit www.bladerunnerpodcast.com  // If you'd like to join the conversation, find us on our closed Facebook group: Fields of Calantha. // To support the show, please consider visiting www.bladerunnerpodcast.com/support.

Welcome to Mona Lisa Overpod, the show that asks the question "What is cyberpunk?" On each episode, hosts Ka1iban and author Lyda Morehouse dive into the genre that helped define sci-fi fiction in '80s and they break down its themes which remain relevant to our lives in the 21st century. Pull on your mirrorshades, jack into the matrix, and start your run with us today!Before Netflix, before the Matrix, before Y2K, the viewing public of the late 20th century knew that computers would be important in the future, somehow, and Hollywood studios scrambled to try and produce TV shows and films that capitalized on and read into that unexplored digital frontier. The result was a 1990s that was awash with stories about how the Internet would change everything, from Keanu Reeves having an 80GB brain implant to Sandra Bullock ordering a pizza...from her computer! (gasp!) Most of these efforts followed the template established by the authors of the early Cyberpunk movement, providing paranoiac thrillers in the style of William Gibson. But one series broke from that mold to attempt to integrate the technothrills of tomorrow with the soapy, prime-time thrills of today: Wild Palms. In this episode, we discuss the "weirdness" of '90s TV and the long shot that was the series' production, the viability of cyberpunk soap opera, the complicated alchemy of going off the TV formula, the intersection of culture and fame in LA, the chilling parallels between Wild Palms and our new millennium, human weakness in the face of technology's temptations, subverting the "Blade Runner aesthetic", how media is used to control us, and what cyberpunk tells us about the media's affect on culture. We also talk about Nazi gas-lighting robots, grading the Turing test on a curve, Stacked Clippy, Brisco County Jr., future = Edwardian collars, Cyberpunk Jim Belushi, postmodern law firms, not understanding your mantra, Patriots vs. Quakers vs. Solid Snake, the tacky harbinger of the Apocalypse, writing off into the sunset, and cyberpunk vampires!Hitler, take the wheel!The new edition of Lyda's book, Ressurection Code, is out now!https://wizardstowerpress.com/books-2/books-by-lyda-morehouse/resurrection-code/Join Kaliban on Twitch weekdays at 12pm for the Cyber Lunch Hour!http://twitch.tv/justenoughtropePut Just Enough Trope merch on your body!http://justenoughtrope.threadless.comMLOP is a part of the Just Enough Trope podcast network.

In 2017, Denis Villeneuve dared to return to the neon-soaked streets of Los Angeles and somehow turned a seemingly impossible sequel into one of cinema's most breathtaking sci-fi masterpieces. Blade Runner 2049 earned critical acclaim and Roger Deakins an Oscar, but the weight of following Ridley Scott's iconic original was almost as crushing as the film's dystopian world.We're unpacking two stories about this ambitious sequel: The pressure-cooker production tale - from Villeneuve's meticulous approach to honoring the original while creating something entirely new, to the studio's gamble on a $150 million art film that audiences weren't quite ready for. Second, we dig into the craft behind this visual symphony - Deakins' groundbreaking cinematography, Ryan Gosling's nuanced performance as K, and how Villeneuve created a meditation on memory and identity that somehow made a three-hour runtime feel essential.Through segments like The Director, The Cast, and The Crew, we explore how a film about artificial beings became a profound examination of what makes us human - all while delivering some of the most stunning visuals ever committed to celluloid, proving that sometimes the best sequels are the ones that expand rather than repeat.Telling the story of Hollywood, one movie at a time.Connect with ATRM: To support what we do, access our archive and listen to exclusive episodes, become an ATRM patron:Listen on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Listen on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Apple Podcasts⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Listen on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Spotify⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Twitter/X: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@ATRightMovies⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe to our channel⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@allthe_rightmovies ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Threads: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@allthe_rightmovies⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join our movie group⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Bluesky: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@alltherightmovies.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠TikTok: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@alltherightmovies⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠alltherightmovies.com⁠⁠⁠⁠

Des machines plus intelligentes et plus créatives que le cerveau humain qui prennent le pouvoir ? (Rediffusion) Hollywood s'est emparé de ce motif pour le décliner dans de nombreuses fictions, de l'assassin cyborg de « Terminator » aux intelligences artificielles de Matrix, en passant par les répliquants androïdes de « Blade Runner », ou encore, bien sûr, H.A.L., l'ordinateur de « 2001, l'Odyssée de l'espace » de Stanley Kubrick, sans doute la première fois qu'une intelligence artificielle « crédible » apparaît sur le grand écran. Verra-t-on bientôt des films écrits voire réalisés par une  IA ? Fera-t-on appel à des actrices et des acteurs de pixels ? Pourrait-on voir Marilyn Monroe apparaître dans le nouvel opus de la franchise James Bond, ou Cary Grant donner la réplique à Juliette Binoche dans une comédie romantique ? C'est de la science-fiction, mais plus tout à fait. On ne peut pas encore vivre sur Mars, mais l'intelligence artificielle est une planète à part entière qui nous fait miroiter dès aujourd'hui des promesses très concrètes. Un monde dont on peine à dessiner les contours tant son évolution est rapide. Ses possibilités semblent infinies, tout autant que les inquiétudes - éthiques, financières et sociales, épistémologiques -  qu'elle suscite.

The 3 Geeks Podcast is back with another jam-packed episode full of pop culture updates, movie news, and passionate geek talk. This week, we dive into Disney's big announcement — Lilo & Stitch 2 is officially in development! We discuss where the story could go, which original characters might return, and why this heartfelt franchise continues to resonate with fans of all ages. Next up, we react to the game-changing news that Denis Villeneuve, the visionary filmmaker behind Dune and Blade Runner 2049, has been chosen to direct the next James Bond movie. What does this mean for the future of 007? Will we see a more thoughtful, visually immersive take on the legendary spy? We break it all down with excitement and speculation. To round out the episode, we shift gears into full summer mode and share our favorite seasonal eats. From backyard burgers and grilled corn to classic push pops and frozen lemonade, we're celebrating all the nostalgic and mouthwatering flavors that define summer.

Putting M3GAN on Trial!

Does It Fly?

“I have a new primary user now…me.”The title character from M3GAN being bratty.When the first trailers for the original M3GAN arrived, nobody quite expected it to be one of the horror movie sensations of recent years. But it sure did! Or, we should say, she sure did. Because like all the best horror movie protagonists who go by their first names alone (Freddy, Jason, you get the picture), M3GAN became a pop culture force all her own.And for all the fun ridiculousness contained in that film (and, presumably, in the sequel, M3GAN 2.0 which is now in theaters), it actually raised some interesting philosophical questions. Of course, here at Does it Fly? we're interested in the actual mechanics of building and designing M3GAN herself, but we also are fascinated by the implications of using a realistic A.I. as a therapeutic device. Maybe M3GAN isn't the most nuanced subject for those conversations, but we dive into them, nonetheless.We also had some of the most fun we've had this year in our final section, putting M3GAN “on trial” for her actions, with our hosts, Dr. Hakeem Oluseyi (prosecution) and Tamara Krinsky, Esq. (ok, not really, but she's a hell of a defense attorney in this case) throw vibes out the window this week, so we'll see you in court!All this and more in the latest episode of Does it Fly? right here…https://youtu.be/nteIYlCFAUISUGGESTED VIEWING If you're reading this, you already saw M3GAN, right? Good. If not, despite its somewhat campy reputation, it really is a fun piece of sci-fi with a horror edge and it absolutely deserved to be the box office hit it was. Just note that we hadn't seen M3GAN 2.0 at the time of recording.While 2004's I, Robot isn't beloved by Asimov purists (see our “further reading” section below), it's better than its reputation suggests and comes from frequently underrated director Alex Proyas, so that's good enough for us if you want a little context for the “three laws of robotics” discussed here.Tamara also brings up Steven Spielberg's Minority Report as a film about a technology that has theoretically good intentions…until it's put into practice and immediately abused. FURTHER READING Do you want to delve a little deeper into the facts, concepts, and stories Hakeem and Tamara referenced in today's episode? Of course you do! Building Your M3GAN (please do not do this)There are three elements of M3GAN that are rooted in science fact but ultimately keep her as science fiction.Fine Motor ControlWe've mentioned the incredible work in humanoid (and canine) robotics being done by Boston Dynamics before, but they don't quite have the dexterity of M3GAN…yet.“Apparent Reasoning”Getting into all of the ins and outs of artificial intelligence and the debates surrounding it is beyond the scope of this show, but even ardent A.I. supporters admit that “true general intelligence” or the ability for machines to actually reason, isn't a thing…yet. Read more here.Power DensityEven assuming these other things were possible, the battery life of M3GAN is beyond the current “power density” of anything out there…for now.Asimov's LawsAs Tamara references, courtesy of Asimov's short story collection, I, Robot…see if you can spot how many of these M3GAN breaks!A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.A robot must obey orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.Kids, Technology, Attention Spans…As Hakeem and Tamara discuss, while technology can be used therapeutically for kids, like anything else, there are potential drawbacks, particularly with attention spans. The Fisher-Price bear hackEven though this happened over a decade ago, it's still a warning light to heed!Hakeem's Favorite AstronautOK, yes, Cady Coleman does seem pretty awesome.WANT MORE FROM DOES IT FLY?For other humanoid robot fun with deep and potentially terrifying implications, have you seen our Blade Runner episode? Or might we suggest RoboCop?The new How to Train Your Dragon is currently in theaters and we took a look at the evolutionary possibilities of dragons right here.FOLLOW US!Stay in the loop!
