I recently re-watched the movie Ex Machina again and remembered how good it was. I highly recommend giving it a watch if you are at all interested in AI/science-fiction/really good movies. There is a plot point, really it’s just a few lines, that I find so fascinating and kind of profound – when he said them, I remembered in a flash how I was struck by these lines in the same way when he said it the first time. In the movie’s world, “Blue Book” is basically their version of Google. The CEO is this mad scientist-type guy named Nathan Bateman who uses the data from Blue Book to create an artificial intelligence, which of course he then puts into the body of a hot robot chick named Ava (not making this up). Bateman is never super specific about how he created the AI, but he does suggest the general strategy he used.
