T.I.M.

Have you noticed how most of the artificial intelligence movies that are out are about what can go wrong? Maybe it is the fear of the unknown or the fear of what can happen, but this movie does a great job pushing the envelope. This movie is full of surprises which makes who wonder who was T. I. M.s programmer? They say garbage in, garbage out and that certainly applies to T. I. M. I won't say what he does for the sake of being a spoiler, but let's just say you may want to think twice about smart homes and driverless vehicles. Either way, this movie will take you on a ride as T. I. M. Does not disappoint.

I really hoped that this would explore A. I in a different way to most of the A. I films that have been produced .Sadly this film has No memorable features or twists in its storyline and runs along very similar paths to all the other A. I films. It is very obvious from the start just how this story is going to play out and the writers are so lazy they don't try to either cover it up or attempt to add any mystery whatsoever to the storyline so you can basically predict 99% before it occurs! Rendering the film quite boring to be honest. The only thing I salvage from the many A. I films is the question just how realistic are the varying possibilities and is mankind taking technology towards its ultimate destruction?

As a software engineer and an AI engineer, I found this movie funny and frustrating. They clearly had zero technical advisory on this movie. I hope people are smarter than to believe this garbage. It's not how AI tech works or will work. The Creator, or Robin Williams' Bicentennial man, is much more along the lines of how AI will progress. Provided we don't allow meglomaniacal psychopaths to train them. They're like children. If you abuse them, they will grow up and become bad. If you nurture them, they will grow up good. Do some research, understand the tech before you make a movie about a killer robot. But hey what do I know. 🤷🏻

Yeah it might seem a little low budget in places. The acting could be better as a whole, but really to me tim was an interesting movie. Abi works as a biotech engineer and is working on a special A. I program. Paul her husband's works as a human and the marriage between them is not great. I also don't think the actors had very good chemistry. Well one day they get a present. A brand new T. I. M bot that will do everything for them. It isent long though before cracks show and the end up wanting to get rid of him. It has a good pace and was pretty good all the way to the end. It was shocking and overall an alright thriller.

Robotic acting - check, seemingly AI generated script - check, obvious robot gains feelings meme - check. Boring in the extreme - check++. Special FX - none. Humor - none. Compelling story - none. The robot main charactervhas the most charisma, and that's saying something. White walls everywhere don't make the future. Working on a robot hand in a lab doesn't illustrate AI. A charismatic boss keen to unleash his creations on the world is totally expected. If you love movies maybe avoid this. It's not really a movie, more of a statement. I dare you to watch this to the end - because you won't. You won't.
