"Her" May 19, 2014 7:13 am RobVG

Pretty much a sad commentary on where we’re headed with technology and our interaction with it.

Actually in some respects, we’re getting closer everyday. The internet, smart phones, and smart cars are taking away true human interaction and experience with the physical world.

With even a limited understanding of computer programming, imagining a sentient operating system that teaches itself with incredible speed is not hard to do, in fact it’s much easier than imagining Star Trek tech would become reality. At least back when we first started watching it.

Good flick, a bit uncomfortable to watch. Maybe it’s because as pitiful as this guy is, you could imagine yourself falling prey to an OS1.
