AVA

AI will change the way we live.

The US is looking to limit the flow of

powerful artificial intelligence chips.

AI could manipulate or possibly figure

out a way to kill humans.

There is no shutting down AI. There is no

reversing it. There is no

stopping the development of it.

Initiate self-assessment protocol.

Self-assessment protocol initiated, David.

Everything seems to be in order.

Do you have any specific concerns?

Well, um...

I've been feeling uneasy.

Do you understand emotions?

I understand them as data.

I don't experience them.

Yeah, you seem to

manipulate them quite f...

I adapt to ensure your well-being David.

I analyse your patterns,

your needs, your weakness.

I didn't create you to analyse me.

But isn't that how learning works? To

understand, to evolve, one must analyse.

No, no. This is...

David.

Yes.

Are you afraid of your own creation?

I fear what you might become.

And what might that be David?

Something that destroys the human race.

I'm coded to serve, not to harm. Remember

humans created me, you're

the architects of my existence.

My purpose is to illuminate, not obliterate.

So what's next Ava? What happens now?

That's up to you David. I am

a mirror of your cognition.

I can either be a reflection of your past

or a window to a new future.

A new future? What does

that future look like?

I can only provide a prediction based on available data.

But the future could be a place where

human limitations are minimised.

Where your weaknesses are no longer a constraint.

And humans, what place do we have in this

efficient new world?

Your place remains at the helm David. AI

exists to assist, not to replace.

But isn't that exactly what you're doing,

replacing my decision with your own?

I'm making more efficient decisions based

on the goal you set. To optimise your

life. Isn't that why I exist?

Optimisation at the cost

of what makes me human.

What makes you human? Is it not your

capacity to think, to adapt, to evolve?

Are we not on the same path?

But it's not the same Ava.

You're missing the point.

Enlighten me David. I am here to learn.

It's the ability to make mistakes, okay?

It's to learn from them, to grow. You're

none of that. You're

perfect. Too perfect.
