On Optimism
----A brief Comment on the Artificial Intelligence
Abstract:
A.I.Artificial Intelligence, also known as A.I., is a 2001 science fiction drama film directed, produced and co-written by Steven Spielberg.The film’s content was maken up by Brian Aldiss' short story “Super-Toys Last All Summer Long”.Set sometime in the future, A.I.tells the story that David who was, a child-like android uniquely, programmed with the ability to love.The review of the film was “a curious, not always seamless, amalgamation of Kubrick's chilly bleakness and Spielberg's warm-hearted optimism.The film is, in a word, fascinating.Key words: Artificial Intelligenceoptimism
The Artificial Intelligence , A.I.is set in the near future, after the polar ice caps have melted and flooded coastal cities like New York.Highly sophisticated, human-like robots(or ”mechas“)have been developed to perform various tasks for the
much-reduced human population, and now the brilliant Professor Hobby(William Hurt)of Cybertronics Labs has perfected a prototype of a robot boy designed to fill an emotional void for childless couples.A Cybertronics employee, Henry Swinton(Sam Robards), and his wife Monica(Frances O'Connor), whose terminally ill child has been cryogenically frozen, take in the eerily realistic artificial boy, David(Haley Joel Osment), on a trial basis.At first spooked by the ever-smiling robot, Monica is eventually won over and initiates the process of ”imprinting“ the boy with an emotional bond.(It's like flicking an ”on“ switch for love.)The family draws closer until an unexpected miracle occurs: The Swintons' real son Martin(Jake Thomas)is cured and returns home.The bratty Martin exploits his cyber-rival's innocence and lures him into trouble, to the point where Monica is convinced David poses a threat to the family's well being.Monica abandons David in a forest, and the film--which up to now has been a rather hermetic domestic tale--suddenly expands out to the
nightmarish larger world.David, who has been schooled(thanks to a scheming Martin)in the story of Pinocchio, sets out to find the Blue Fairy who can turn him into a real
boy and help him win back his mother's love.But first, David must elude the
cyber-phobic poachers who are rounding up ”mechas“ and destroying them for sport at an arena event called Flesh Fair.The Flesh Fair sequence is but the first of several spectacular episodes in David's odyssey, which also include a visit to a garish, Blade Runner-like urban destination called Rouge City and a journey over the submerged New York.Accompanying David is Gigolo Joe(Jude Law), a strutting ”lover robot“ who becomes his new
protector.Ultimately, David finds his Blue Fairy, but the film takes a radical turn that manages to be simultaneously gloomy and unashamedly emotional.Your response to A.I.will largely depend on your reaction to the whole conceit of a mechanical boy protagonist.If David is ”programmed“ to love, one might ask, why should we care about the fate of this artificial creature? But if you can accept that the character's fixation on his mother's acceptance is taking him beyond himself, creating something spiritual out of his fabricated being, David's odyssey will haunt you.The metaphors for human notions of identity and soul are all there for the pondering in this unusually philosophical studio blockbuster.It is the research and artificial simulation of human thought and eventually be able to make a human like to think the same machine.For human services and to help people solve problems.After all, people thought it was unique, there are feelings, there are a variety of characters, this will be very difficult to achieve in the machine.In fact, to do the same as the human thinking machine, the only one of the artificial intelligence, is by no means all.Through the study of artificial intelligence, can resolve all kinds of scientific problems, and promote the development of other science, the artificial intelligence is the best
AI is about the question, ”What makes us human?“ Can a robot(computer intelligence)ever be human? The boy robot David is created to be fully capable of human characteristics, even love.But he is quickly rejected by his family, and the rest of the story is about his quest to become human so he can regain his mother's acceptance and love.The first twenty minutes of a film, the opening, are critical for engaging the audience.This story has an intriguing story line, great settings, nice special effects, and enough motivation and emotion in the opening, so why doesn't it emotionally engage the audience? Because we don't identify with the struggles of the people involved since there is no continuity of any single character's story.All good science fiction has some human sensitivity in it otherwise it would just be a horror film.The script reflects some of the darkness and coldness that sometimes underlies each character human and machine;there is no fear of this in the story.This darkness draws us on in the story.This raises philosophical issues about the nature of the mind and limits of
scientific hubris, issues which have been addressed by myth, fiction and philosophy since antiquity.Artificial intelligence has been the subject of optimism.A.I.forces us to ponder where we've been and where we might be going.It's an incredible combination of Kubrick's icy intellectual and clinical mind and Spielberg's emotional heart;and I think it works exceedingly well.But it forces the viewer to not leave their heart and brains at the door, which I think is why it is being so negatively received in this season of mindless summer movie fare.It may be too intelligent for its own good, and many don't have the 145 minutes of patience needed for the movie.I did, however;and I would call this an absolute masterpiece.Out of ten stars, give this one a 10.All in all I would say A.I is a wonderfully unique film that should be judged for what it is, a film.Forget everything about the Spielberg/Kubrick ”issue" and just sit back and take in a truely amazing film.You may hate it, you may love it, but no matter what, it will affect your emotions in some way and you will discuss the film afterwards.Bibliography:

Forrest Gump review
Forrest Gump describes a story happened on an idiot called Forrest Gump from the 1950’s to the 1980’s in America.As developed America, as Forrest Gump grew up.Ferrost experienced lots of things of importance in the history of America such as the assassinate of kennnedy, the Vietnam War, the Pingpong Diplomacy
and so on.He became a football star, a war hero, a business boss, and a millionnaire.In our view, he is almost a superman, but he did not notice that.As we all know, the film has received a lot of prizes in the Oscar and the other film festivals.I think it deserves it.Some people think this film is a comedy, but I don’t think so.I consider this film as a rony film.The rony occurred in details and was hidden in humor.I will give an example.Do you think an idiot
could be a war hero? I think it should be impossible.But in Vietnam War, it is.In the other way, if the war was started by the fool, the idiot
deserves the hero.From this point, we can see the against attitude of the public taken to this war.Forrest Gump is also a film that can motivate people.In this
film, Forrest take a special attitude different from almost of us to life.The life of Forrest is not very easy, but no matter what he is going to face next, he always accepted it easily, and try his best to accomplish it.Never in his life, he complain about the unfair of 命运 or lost confident of himself.What he did is just doing his best, which is very simple.In our real life, how many people struggled to get something, but in the end, nothing was left.Why not live as Forrest Gump? Doing best is just okey, but never stop our step forward.When it comes to the script, there is no reason not to say the famous words.‘Life was like a box of chocolates, you never know what you’re gonna get.’.It was passed to Forrest by his mother.What wise words it is.The beauty of life is just in the aspect that no one can know what is tommorow like.That is just why I like it.If we all knew what will happen in future, the life must be boring enough.The other fomous script is only one word ‘run’.I think in thisfilm The ‘run’ stand for change.Forrest changed from an idiot
into a success, but there is something that didn’t change.The woman bus driver who took Forrest to school also pick his son
up to school for the first time.I suppose this film deserves us watching it thousands of times.During the progress, we can enjoy the power of one person, the beauty of scenes, be moved by the plot, be influenced by the scripts.Thank you
