iRobot is perhaps the most modern movie, not to mention a good movie.

“Good Luck, Have Fun, Don’t Die”. A recent movie not only had AI as the main villain but had people’s addiction to surfing the Internet with their phone as its way of controlling us. It was a fun movie.

I would add “Creation of the Humanoids” to that list. Was a film made in 1962. Low budget, but very good and ahead of its time. And some funny parts as well.

It’s also free to watch on YouTube:

Subservience with Meghan Fox was good. She was ai yi yi

Subservience (2024). Megan Fox plays Alice, a highly advanced, lifelike AI android purchased by a struggling father (Michele Morrone) to help with housekeeping and childcare, who gains sentience and becomes possessive and lethal.

I would add the 1984 book and movie to the list. Written in 1948 there were TV screens monitoring everybody.

Seen many of those but Terminator-1 to me did the best job depicting scenarios in a world with AI coupled with a future storage technology.

I would add the movie Transcendence, a movie starring Johnny Depp who is a world leading AI computer scientist.

Enemy Of The State (Gene Hackman, Will Smith) was also a warning.

All of those deal with something that is completely science fiction, AGI. Pretending that what they are calling “AI” today is remotely close to that is also, science fiction.

Mary Shelley’s, “Frankenstein,” (the book moreso than most of the movie adaptations) predates all those movies, but IMHO, offers a prescient warning about not asking if we can, but if we should, and what happens when a creation spirals out of the control of its creator.
