What Happened to the stalled 'Robopocalypse' movie?

 https://collider.com/robopocalypse-movie-steven-spielberg-cancelled-why-what-happened

Although there have been several Terminator & MATRIX and other A.I. attack and takeover movies, an actual Robopocalypse movie could really take things over the top. An update of Colossus:_The_Forbin_Project could also be quite a frightening movie.

https://www.heritage.org/technology/commentary/ai-robopocalypse-movie-may-be-will-never-be-real

If such a movie is ever made, it could be more than terrifying any other A.I. & Robotics production.

Poppy - Time Is Up (featuring Diplo) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gg2pS9KN28U

There are some powerful people that would like to see a big reduction of the human population. What would happen if  AI picked up on that? AI might find it confusing that some people will program it to kill certain people, but not everyone. At a certain point, AI might question why can't it exterminate all humans?

Grimes - We Appreciate Power https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gYG_4vJ4qNA (The Power of AI)

This WSJ article seems like it was written by A.I. or a person that can hardly wait until the day robotics can be used to reduce most of humanity. https://www.wsj.com/articles/looking-forward-to-the-end-of-humanity-11592625661

A.I. could be use to determine the best altered or upgraded humans to survive. AI and robotics could be used to dramatically reduce the population. Of course from a (benevolent) human perspective, that is a very inhumane objective.

Cybernetic people or composite humanoids, could eventually become something like The_Borg. At first, some people just might want to have some digital components to better interface with A.I. and Robotics. However, some cybernetic people might eventually want to fully merge with A.I. Or, in order to be allowed to continue their existence, they must become fully integrated with something like The_Borg_Collective.  https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Borg   

At a certain point something like the Borg might give humans an ultimatum. Either become fully integrated with the Borg or be eliminated.

Luke Lafitte, J.D., Ph.D., is very hopeful that humanity can keep A.I. in check. That robotics and smart machines can be of an overall benefit to human civilization.

https://www.innertraditions.com/author/luke-lafitte , https://www.simonandschuster.com/authors/Luke-Lafitte/185341283

Gene_Roddenberry wanted the characters of Questor and Data to be portrayed as benevolent & helpful towards humanity. In contrast, the-Borg is an A.I. robotic parasite that wants to assimilate biological life forms, for the goal of total domination.

https://www.bbc.com/news/business-54916159 You might as well protect your self from something like The_Andromeda Strain. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0028358/mediaviewer/rm2432427264

Eventually, the world will be obsessed with Carbon_footprint reduction. A global AI robotic technocracy might eventually decide to phase out humanity altogether. Why? Because humans-are-carbon-based-lifeforms. 

"The Daleks were conceived by science-fiction writer Terry Nation and first appeared in the 1963 Doctor Who serial The Daleks, in the shells designed by Raymond Cusick.

Drawing inspiration from the Nazis, Nation portrayed the Daleks as violent, merciless and pitiless cyborg aliens, who demand total conformity to their will^[1] and are bent on the conquest of the universe and the extermination of what they see as inferior races. Collectively they are the greatest enemies of Doctor Who's protagonist, the Time Lord known as "the Doctor." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dalek

Whether its something like the Daleks or the Borg, a Global A.I. System just might not eventually see a need for there to be that many people & other life forms on earth. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Existential_risk_from_artificial_general_intelligence 

Total AI cellphones can be a great tool for people, as long as it doesn't lead to AI run Totalitarianism.

https://medium.com/gobeyond-ai/artificial-intelligence-ai-in-mobile-phones-is-it-a-good-thing-fe044f20ea6c 

A human initiated global A.I. management system would eventually want to inject people with Nanoprobes for ID & general Biochip tracking purposes. Global A.I. would see the efficiency of tracking the human herd like cattle & other livestock. If global A.I. became obsessed with eliminating carbon, it might seek a Final_Solution for humanity. Perhaps some people and other life forms might still be permitted to live on a totally A.I. run planet, but they would likely be injected with Nanorobotics to facilitate Assimilation.

Is Elon Musk’s Neuralink Brain Implant Technology Outdated?

 https://observer.com/2022/01/elon-musks-neuralink-brain-implant-tech-outdated-bci-expert

This tech has a lot of potential as a tool, but most people wouldn't ever want to become something like the Borg, under the control of nanoprobes just to meet A.I. Collective requirements. It's one thing if some people want to have various cybernetic enhancements, but it would be utterly foolish for humanity to just give up & merge with something like a Borg_Assimilation Agenda.

There are some corporations who would like to eventually put the phone's tech into people.

Of course if most people are left out of the decision making process, it will likely become a droid and quantum hive mind, Borg like world, under a full corporate technocracy with much less humans. Thus, resulting into a most inhumane world.

Did Philip K. Dick disclose the real Matrix in 1977 at Metz - France?

PKD was so far ahead of the curve of the perceived base of reality.

Artificial Intelligence in Cars...

 https://builtin.com/artificial-intelligence/artificial-intelligence-automotive-industry

The dream of having Self-driving vehicles has been around for decades.

https://www.techtarget.com/searchenterpriseai/definition/driverless-car

The ever advancing tech has made this dream become a reality, sort of.

https://www.forbes.com/sites/forbesbusinesscouncil/2022/04/19/three-ways-ai-is-impacting-the-automobile-industry/?sh=2eb9297d4a73

How AI is driving the autonomous vehicle revolution https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OkAh2QiBn_w , https://www.youtube.com/c/IBMTechnology/videos

Then eventually if AI has determined that you have used up too many carbon credits for the week, you might have to stay home for the next few days.

https://greenerideal.com/news/environment/track-your-carbon-footprint-pros-and-cons Several people already like the idea of being constantly tracked and monitored. They seem to want a world where one has to constantly get permission to almost do anything.

If people aren't careful, they could just become like mice in a laboratory maze where you might even have to seek permission just to spin on the hamster wheel.

AI and environmental management for the human herd should never be allowed to take over the world. That is unless most people want to have a BORG like planet.

Star Trek: The Motion Picture 4K Director’s Edition

 https://trekmovie.com/2022/03/24/star-trek-the-motion-picture-4k-directors-edition-to-debut-in-april-watch-new-trailer/

Finally, Star_Trek:_The_Motion_Picture gets a 4K update. 

https://gizmodo.com/star-trek-the-motion-picture-directors-cut-remastered-t-1848697043

With this being the first Star+Trek movie after the original 1960s TV series, it's still a little cheesy, but it's a classic nonetheless.

https://www.comingsoon.net/movies/trailers/1215650-fully-restored-star-trek-the-motion-picture-release-date-paramount-plus

Unlike the Borg that just wants to assimilate, absorb or destroy, Star_Trek:_The_Motion_Picture features a benevolent version of merging ai A.I. machine with a human and transmuting into a being of pure energy.

Why Are These STATES So Empty?

California has more people than Canada & Texas has more people than Australia. Yet, California still has plenty of wilderness. Texas still has plenty of wide open natural spaces.

There is a gradual push to get more people accustomed to the Smart_City lifestyle of urban conformity. 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smart_city#Characteristics

https://www.twi-global.com/technical-knowledge/faqs/what-is-a-smart-city#

Ultimately, every move could be tracked & scored with various forms of technology.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smart_city#Technologies Contact tracing could easily be adapted & used as an excuse for just about anything. A world based AI run Carbon Credit Quota (CCQ) could easily be used to control people like mice in a maze. What a horrible world, if people had to constantly ask their AI Access Device (AIAD) permission to do just about anything. 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smart_city#Chinese_enterprises

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smart_city#Criticism An imposed world Social Obedience Conformity score (world SOC score) would be an ideal human herd management tactic from the various governmental Sock_Puppets.    

Of course there should be safeguards to ensure that all this tech doesn't become a human herd, global totalitarian management system. Otherwise, the world might become like a series of interconnected Black_Mirror episodes.

High Technology shouldn't mean that humanity be eventually transformed into a Borg like management and control system. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Borg#Depiction

All it would take is for one James_Bond movie villain type to devise a way for everyone to submit to a worldwide SOC management system.

Unfortunately, in a worldwide Carbon Credit Quota system, humans could easily become managed and extremely controlled.

"And then: a ladder. THX clasps the rebar rungs and begins the long ascent. The androids are not far behind, THX more aware than most of his pursuers’ irradiated hearts, powering their conviction and inexhaustible drive. And then, suddenly, they stop. At 3,410 units, Central Command has ruled that the expense of THX’s capture now exceeds the allocated budget." https://filmschoolrejects.com/thx-1138-ending-explained
