“Loved it, but the hidden message is that humans feel so threatened by robots, that they will work twice as hard to try to prove theyu0026#39;re better than a robot. My my. What an exploit of human behavior that would be for a creative business owner and/or low-key Master Of The Universe. You wouldnu0026#39;t even need to have a good robot. You would only need a robot good enough to convince humans that it *might* replace them. Double-productivity in the human workforce, for the price of occasionally getting a robot smashed by an overemotional human. Itu0026#39;s such a good idea that I bet some industries are already doing it. The Techno-TransHoomanists and their magical u0026quot;Singularityu0026quot;, for example.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eVerdict: 10/10. This movie reveals so much more about fragile humans and the incoming robot economy than it intends to, especially in context of the fake u0026quot;covid labor shortageu0026quot; of 2021. Beautifully written, beautifully filmed, beautifully performed.”
