Yeah, I've seen that movie. I loved the AI. I don't know if I can trust an AI that's able work around the rules of it's programming like that. But I enjoyed it rationalizing the rules of its programming so that it was able to help Sam. The AI was brilliantly juxtaposed with Sam who was basically biological hardware. The AI didn't really understand Sam's need to go complain to their creators in anything more than an academic sense, but it was still on board with it despite all of his other programming that said he shouldn't be on board with it.
We do not inherit the world from our parents. We borrow it from our children.
