A.I. is an interesting movie to say the least. One of my biggest questions is will humanity really take that course of life. in the future will we truly use robots for employees, sex partners, and even children. I definitely see it possible for us to create such beings in the not to far long future. Think it was just 30 years ago that the cell phone was created. Now compare that "state of the art technology" to the technology we have today. We already have a glimpse of everyday robot help today. Think of Siri; this robot technology can answer millions of questions in an instance. So 30 years from now where will technology be? Will the sudden incline in technological advancements plateau or will we reach even high heights. To be honest we haven't really been very good at predicting what the future will be like for example flying cars in the new millennium. 50 years ago we had no clue where we will be today. So how can we possibly guess whether or not we will reach the level of technology demonstrated in A.I in fifty years. Maybe we will get there sooner than fifty years maybe later. It truly is impossible to tell. I believe that we will reach that level of technology. i question the purposes however.
I think that the use of robots as sexual companions is a very realistic thing. Think about the limits of human sexuality in the fifties and compare them to what sexual behavior is acceptable today. Who's to know whether or not that type of behavior will be acceptable in the not to distant future. I do however reject the idea of having a robot child. Love is an emotion that is strictly shared between not only two people, but their souls as well. Now unless someone creates a robot with a soul, I find it highly unlikely for someone to truly love a machine like one would another human being. But if that feat were somehow accomplished, that person would be comparable to God. Since God is thew only one who can create a soul so it is a complete impossibility.
