- Thank you Huz for this video recommendation!
In this video essay we take a dive into Be Right Back, an episode of Black Mirror centralized around love, death and robots. But its not that show...

Black Mirror is famous for demonstrating challenging ideas of how human nature and advanced technology could one day combine in ways that we may initially desire but soon sorely regret. Being able to enter virtual worlds through the touch of a button, but to also be trapped in them; to be able revisit all your past memories at will, but to never be able to live for the future; and to be able to talk to people we love who have passed away, but to never truly be able to move on from them. That is the theme of Be Right Back, the first episode of the second season of this show that I cover in this video.

All I keep saying is thank you to these comments but I really mean it. It’s really nice to hear that the content is having an impact on people, even if it is small, it means the world to me. Thank you thank you thank you
We are so CLOSE to this...well, not the robot body part, but everything up until that. You could almost see this as a version of that same person, just with partial amnesia.
Definitely feel that we’re close to it as well! Strange to think about
Such a good video from an incredibly small channel, I didn,'t even notice the low view count until I was halfway through the video. Narration and editing is on par with other youtubers analyzing movies or shows. Please keep up the good work, this deserves to blow up in the algorithm!
You have made my day. Thank you for your kind words! I definitely will keep it up 😁😁

This episode was heartbreaking
the last scene is so heartbreaking honestly, also imagine growing up like that
It so is. The first time I heard that scream at the end was just.. I don’t know. It’s such a different ending to other episodes of Black Mirror. It’s just so human. And right? That would be such a strange childhood to have, I don’t know how I’d explain that
Just a note, vice literally did a story about this exact service at 6:45 where you send the company sound clips of a deceased loved one and they create an AI model that responds with their voice and mannerisms.
I think the ending just brkngs home the fact that after the initial shock, these realistic robots will become just more accurate pictures.
I fully agree with your personal opinion (that you disagree with such an idea) concerning the fact that you would be able to communicate with a loved one who has passed away. Grieving is not an easy thing to do, but you have to understand that the deceased have to also rest in peace and you have your life still ahead of you. Great video.
That’s a great point! Thank you for your comment :)
We're lucky enough to witness this
This was the first episode of black mirror I ever watched, and I'm glad, because people who start with the actual first episode, which I still haven't seen, usually are reluctant to watch any more.
Great explanation and analysis. This terrifying glimpse at what AI could be used for literally makes me feel sick inside.
Funny, Junji ito has a manga touching a similar premise.
Basically some popular guy dumps a girl and leaves her with a tape record to replace him, so that "she will not miss him that way"
So the girl kills the guy and ends up replacing him with the tape.
Oh LORD. I've only read The Enigma of Amigara fault and I still think about that one today. Was really hoping the netflix anime would cover that episode because I will 100% make a video about it if they do. I'll have to check out more of his stuff, but at the same time im kind of scared to 😬
Please review the rest! This was very insightful and entertaining!
Keep it up!
Great video!!! I would love to see you cover more black mirror in this way!
Probably will! Haven’t watched through it all yet so as I do I’ll keep and eye out
amazing video i got recommended your channel by CZcams and I am loving it. for me personally i think that we wouldnt be able to move on because even though we know that the person sadly does not exist anymore our brain would still recognize that we can talk to them therefore they are alive i personally dont think this tech should even be made because it gives you a false hope of your loved ones coming back
Totally agree, great comment. Thank you!
Have lost many incredible people and I would never do this, it would be an insult to their memory.
That’s a great point, thank you for your comment
Another problem with this kind of tecnology would be people trying to 'recreate' their favourite media personalities. Streamers in particular since their audiences tend to ve very parasocial. I guess if a program like this existed they should have a way to geniunely prove they are somehow related to the person they're replicating
It’s definitely a tough dilemma, and one we’re not really that far off facing ourselves
I haven't seen like any black mirror mostly cause i think the general themes are off putting. In the sense that its just uncomfy but I have seen a few analysis and this is a great one. You're absolutely right tho that its one of the scariest cause its not far from being a reality, especially reading the comments and hearing that most of this is already kinda a reality. Absolute mindfuck. Excellent video! Keep it the fuck up!
Thank you man ❤️
Your narration was really great! It was pleasant to listen to (not meaning that the subject was nice it’s rather sad/heavy) & u brought ur points across well :)
Keep up the good work ^^
Gahh thank youu! Comments like these up my motivation by 1000%
as someone who has dealt with losing people, i understand the temptation this would cause and in a moment of weakness i could see myswlf trying it. however, as a long term solution it would creep me the fuck out after like a couple of guilty texts and id throw it all in the trash and unsubscribe lol
Totally valid and why this episode is so interesting. Thank you for your comment!
Wow this was a great analysis 🫶🏾👏🏾
Thank you!!
had this on in the background and you really drew me in, was surprised when I checked and saw the views. I hope you get a chance to grow further because I love this sort of content :)
Thank you so much for the kind words! I’m glad it’s engaging :)
Just saying this was recommended to me on CZcams from my home page so your algorithm is working! :D Wishing you luck in growing the channel. Also this episode of Black Mirror really hit me hard, i'm so glad to hear this story again even though it truly breaks my heart to relive this story. I unfortunately have lived long enough to have loved ones taken from me, and i must mention how incredibly hard it would be for me to resist signing up to this offer if it was made available to me.
Thank you! It is a really tough episode, just because of how realistic it is. Can’t imagine what that’d be like, and I know I will one day but still not sure how’d I’d feel about it
Great video! So glad this showed up in my recommended. Will be checking out your other stuff too!
Thank you!! 🙏
I'm okay with this; I think.
A really well done video.
Thank you! I’m proud of the editing at the first half but I feel I dropped the ball a little by the end but I’ll keep improving with each video!
usually i dont comment stuff like this but this is a small channel that deserves love so; great video :) cool i get to be an early sub
Thank you for the love! These comments have just been so nice to see, it’s really great that everyone is enjoying it
Only 240 subscribers? We gotta change that shit boys. we can make a difference in at least one person's life, and can get some great content out of it so please subscribe. If you can spare the effort that is
I don't really know what to say to a comment like this. If you want you can SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSMASH that SUBSCIRBOEIB but honestly this videos already doing better than I could've asked for, so thank you for your kindness and your support! I've been making videos since I was in primary school so I know by this point that I'm only doing it because I love it, and will keep doing it no matter what numbers I get. The most subs i've ever got on a channel is 80, so i've already beaten my goal. Still though, I've never seen feedback like this before, so it will stay in my heart for the rest of my life. Thank you!
Loved this, thank you! (If you're still looking for recommendations, maybe an Inside No. 9 episode? It's a similar show to Black Mirror)
No, thank you!! Oo I haven’t heard of that before, so definitely gonna check it out. Love new recommendations
@@unprocreations It's seriously a great show, there's a few episodes that are a bit of a mindfuck so I'd love to see what you think of them especially after seeing this analysis. Keep up the good work, man!
@@ika6372 Thank you!!! YES I am keen. The more mindfucky the better! Lets goo
I think AI would be a lot better than Ash-bot was. People already love confiding in AI chatbots. Even Elisa was confided it and that wasn't even very sophisticated "AI".
Shout out to shitty friend Sara for giving us the episode we got lmao
This episode is soo fucking sad, yet we literally are able to do this now. It's scary
Its such a good episode with so much to talk about, had to try hard to not make this analysis as long as the episode itself honestly! And with how prominent AI has become over the past few years, it's definitely interesting and like you said, scary.
@UnProCreations I'm literally watching ai presidents rn, makes me think of the relic from cyberpunk 2077 was marketed as a way to talk to deceased family members and ended up being a curse as the technology was literally overwriting your brain like a game save the absolute multi-tool that is AI is more dangerous than nukes apparently
@@Parz1val465 The Ai Presidents playing games is actually funny as ngl. Oh jeeezus that sounds f u n
@UnProCreations it's my new favorite thing. Some of them sound absolutely uncanny
@@Parz1val465 legitt and sometimes while watching I forget its AI for a second- like what is happening
I think with this, I would ask the chat bot to help me to grieve. I wouldn’t treat this like the real person.
That would probably be the best way to go about it, if you can keep that healthy distance and understanding of what it is
You say this technology will come to exist in a few years... What if I tell you it already does? HereAfter AI is a chatbot with that purpose and Re;memory by Deep Brain AI tries to incorporate image and voice as well.
Oh goodness, here we go
Damn this guy kinda looks like Markiplier
So it begiNs
