The one about how if I've invented a machine with consciousness, I'm not a man, I'm a God.’ Like in Frankenstein, it does not end well for the scientist.
I’m intrigued the bible is referenced in this film which often talks about Nathan playing god ‘You know, I wrote down that other line you came up with. The intelligent narrative in this film is what I enjoy the most, as I want my own project to have a narrative to it too. But further toward the end we realize that the test all along was to see if Ava would trick Caleb to fall for her in order to try and escape the lab and have the freedom of living a normal life which is all she wants. The narrative draws us to believe that initially Nathan is simply carrying out a Turing test to see if Caleb believes the ai to have a consciousness, then as the plot thickens we are led to believe he was trying to see if Caleb would fall for the ai. Alex Garland’s Ex Machina is a large source of inspiration for me due to how he uses the genre of speculative fiction to create commentary on the male gaze in cinema the ai in this film, Ava, is designed to be attractive to Caleb’s tastes in which Nathan rather creepily finds out by finding out his search history (porn). In regard to the artificial intelligence route of my project there are mainly films I am drawn to and have been given inspiration from. There are a range of references which I believe to be relevant to my topics which I want to explore and I believe there are many more which I am yet to research.
