Unknown: Killer Robots

Next race is here stumbling struggling to walk on surfaces flying discreetly sensing the heat temperatures and using lethality to complete an assignment. Excellent visuals in drawing a clear picture of what's at stake in a world where more and more competitors joins the neverending race of achieving absolute supremacy. Interviews gave an opportunity to actually focus the issue on it's real roots. Documentaries such as this is needed more and more and plays a key role in reminding every human how fragile the balance of every element is. Great use of audio and visuals. A short educating documentary.

So apparently they used a bunch of youtube videos without the creators' consent (like LowkoTV) to create this documentary and now make money essentially streaming the work of others on Netflix. You are highly mistaken if you believe a penny went to the original creators. Not even a dime, actually. Unethical, illegal and therefore not worth a minute of anyone's time.

You would think that at that point even in 2023 people have already learnt enough about AI to assess the implications and risks. Like many documentaries, however, this one does not talk about specific applications of AI, instead focusing on general information one could get by... asking AI (ironic, I know). I suppose it's good for people new to the technology world, but on the other hand, is it really?

It's somewhat confused about whether it wants to present AI used for defense as a moral threat or necessary "for the safety of our nation." Many groans during this documentary.

As such it comes across as propaganda designed to lead the viewer to the tired trope: "it's frightening but our adversaries are developing it too." and "one nation will not agree..". The audience groans knowing which nation that will be. Namely the one in the documentary.

Protagonists such as the Navy Seal guy (clearly a psychopath) is presented as reasonable voice, yet for most viewers imbues a deep sense of immorality.

A Secretary of Defense talks about "saving lives," whilst a Lockheed Martin employee talks about wildfires. This insults our intelligence. Human not artificial.

Netflix scores another propaganda hit.

I love the part where Emilia says she's really optimistic about the future because of the Biological Weapon Convention. Nice video of President Richard Nixon and Secretary of State Rogers walking into a meeting. How the USA and the communist (USSR) signed a treaty to do away with biological weapons and research. Ha!!! Read the book SPIES that just came out by Calder Walton. Based on the files smuggled out of the USSR the communist NEVER stopped working on biological weapons. We were suckers to believe that they would. Do not think for one second that the bad guys will abide by any LAWS.

Another thing. Why do I have to use so many different words to be able to post a comment.

It's a repetitive documentary declared as film in Netflix .It was too boring with its narratives .Don't have to watch this childish documentary if really don't want to waste your valuable time .Dragging the scenes with repetitive narratives which is nothing new even for the kids .May be AI itself is surprised why he /she is so dull after watching this annoying fascinated dull story .it's good to avoid to watch this if you are really serious about either a tech film or a informative documentary .News channels may be more informative and thrilling now days, especially when they are covering military advancements and tech innovations by various countries .
