Blade Runner

Blade Runner Report

While watching Blade Runner, I immediately got enticed by the way that they projected the image of how the future would be perceived since they were in 1986 and were speaking in terms of how the year 2016 would look like. It almost felt as though they were predicting the future to be a dark and isolated world ruled by AI technology. To some extent, they were right regarding the way AI has overruled our life in some way, yet at the moment it’s social media and not robots in particular. I thought it was interesting when the question was asked if the owl was artificial, yet it was actually a live owl. Therefore, in their time, they believe that what’s actual real must exist through some sort of technological invention. In the film, the dedication of the plot is enticed around Blade Runners who happen to spot out the human like individuals called “Replicants.” The way Blade Runners perform this mysterious search relies on a small video camera detection device that allows the Blade Runner to figure out the distinction of human or robot through small movement in the eye when answering questions. It’d be crazy if one day AI became a part of us to an even greater extent than our phone, tablets, and laptops. I truly wonder if that’s ever possible. The idealism towards it says no since we will have be the form human, however, I am unsure of the way evolution will progress for humans in terms of technological resources.
