My brain is really limited

Artificial intelligence is a science fiction topic that has been discussed by many people. In modern times, AI is no longer a science fiction category. It should be possible for our generation to come into contact with real artificial intelligence in the near future. I am more interested in the philosophical or sociological significance of AI. For example, the way Machina collects data in the movie comes from search engines. Ava uses search engines to understand the world and human beings, and analyze massive amounts of information. Of course, humans understand the world in this way. , we absorb information and compile our own value and world system, is AI the other way around? I always feel that artificial intelligence is possessing a large amount of information and then organizing it in an artificial way. The intelligence lies in how to organize it. How does this relate to whether our so-called human nature is evil or good? Where is this beginning, such as ava, her purpose is to escape, this beginning was discovered by her own organization, or given by the creator. Information, emotion, morality, values, intuition, subconsciousness, how much of these can be artificial? If these can be created, where is the biological identity of man himself? The capacity of my brain is really limited, I may go crazy if I think about it, let's float away~~~

Caleb: It's obvious, once I stop to think.

Nathan: [points to painting] You know this guy, right?
Caleb: Jackson Pollock.
Nathan: Jackson Pollock. That's right. The drip painter. Okay. He let his mind go blank, and his hand go where it wanted. Not deliberate, not random. Some place in between. They called it automatic art. Let's make this like Star Trek, okay? Engage intellect.
Caleb: Excuse me?
Nathan: I'm Kirk. Your head's the warp drive. Engage intellect. What if Pollock had reversed the challenge. What if instead of making art without thinking, he said, "You know what? I can't paint anything, unless I know exactly why I'm doing it." What would have happened?
Caleb: He never would have made a single mark.
Nathan: Yes! You see, there's my guy, there's my buddy, who thinks before he opens his mouth. He never would have made a single mark.
Nathan: The challenge is not to act automatically. It's to find an action that is not automatic. From painting, to breathing, to talking, to fucking. To falling in love...
Nathan: And for the record, Ava's not pretending to like you. And her flirting isn't an algorithm to fake you out. You're the first man she's met that isn't me. And I'm like her dad, right? Can you blame her for getting a crush on you?
