A World Congress And Human Rights For Robots - Part 2 of 2

- This is conditioning for the transhumanist agenda, blurring the line between humans and machines, as the elite prepare to merge the two in reality.
In the movie the robot is an individual who gradually becomes more like a human being. First he opens a bank account (is that the most human trait?) then he has an upgrade which allows human-like movement of his facial features, then he starts wearing clothes. Later he is given a human-like outer appearance and then he designs himself a central nervous system, and various artificial organs which allow him to become more human-like - and they also allow humans to become more robot-like.
Then he falls in love with Portia - the descendant of his original "masters". (It was suggested earlier on that Portia's grandmother actually fell in love with the far less human-like "Andrew".)
And finally he alters himself to allow him to age, and to die, as seen in this clip.
In trying to acquire the right to call himself a human being, and to marry another human being, he is told that "society can tolerate an immortal robot but we will never tolerate an immortal human. It arouses too much jealousy, too much anger."
Jumping further into the future, just seconds after "Andrew" dies he succeeds in acquiring human rights for himself, by being categorised as a human being. Society did not therefore have to tolerate an immortal human being.
The President of the World Congress refers to "Andrew" first as a robot, and then as the oldest living human being in recorded history (other than Methuselah and other Biblical figures) although he actually dies as she is saying it. This blurs the distinction between humans and robots, and actually suggests that the new classification means that "Andrew" was human from the moment he was first switched on - 5:15pm on April 3, 2005 - when he was unambiguously a robot.
There is also a hint that the nurse is an upgrade of the female robot with personality that featured earlier in the movie, which "Andrew" actually attacks with a drill, although it is presented as being a light-hearted moment. The robot nurse actually breaks the law about not harming a human, by assisting Portia in dying. Perhaps this is because at that moment the 3 laws of robotics no longer apply. (Andrew also breaks the third law, by bringing about his own death.)
The existence of a world congress in the future is also a piece of predictive programming i.e. conditioning us to accept the idea of a one world government.

This by far was an intelligent well written movie.. amazing. RIP Robin Williams
This ending never failed to make me cry, even before Mr. Williams passed away. Didn't fail this time, either.
This is such a brilliant little sci-fi story, and for all that Robin himself seems to have joked about this movie being a bomb later in life, I'm still grateful to him and those responsible for making it. It's one of my all-time favorites, and a damn good modern take on an Asimov story to boot.
its actually been awhile since i seen this movie, i remembered the movie, the character in it, but not the name of the movie.
and im starting to think, this is the movie i been trying to find for 20 years, and is what inspired me as a young severely autistic boy, to try to innovate for the better of humanity.
right now, im a poor 27 year old man, but by age 60, i hope to be the most active and smartest man in human history, with a very innovative personality.
A friend who read the book told me that he spent most of his life in legal battles arguing that humans using his prosthetics were less human, losing on purpose until, at last, the congress admitted that the only thing that made a human, human was their brain.
Which then he changed, so they forced them to admit that he was human too.
Beautiful movie, one of the best performances by Robin Williams❤
Saw it before...saw it again...shed a tear each time. Also read and loved Asimov's book that inspired this movie.
Surprisingly faithful to the short story too!
I'm gonna do what Andrew did but in reverse.
Hey you still alive???
You can do what you want. Although my own experience has been long enough to realize a longer existence isn't always a better one. It might be fun for a while, but eventually you just get tired. The world rapidly materializing into something you can't comprehend. Losing everyone who held haven within your heart. Watching all of it turn to dust. The only thing certain about it all is that you'll end up alone.
@@mrfrankiej932 Did you get it from Doctor Who?
I can't believe he died before he got the news. In a way he was striking for that through half of the movie. Or a quarter.
Galatea overcome her programming by allowing Portia to die, in a way she became sentient by being more than the sum of her parts.
Grateful to still be on the Earth. Miracle.
I would hate to have a world Congress. That sounds like a dystopian future.
Agree with you
@getupkid238 It might not be the best movie, but it's better than movies being released today. It's very touching and one of the movies I remember from my childhood. It was a glimpse into the future of what could be. A machine becoming original and becoming more human-like. Instead of an uprise, it was the acceptance of a robot being human and that's what I love about it. So yeah, it's not the best, but it's one of my cherish movies in my life.
christ this is sad, we miss you Robin... you were one of the greatest actors and most humble human being ever!
Galatea too developed a conscious because she disregard the 3 Laws
I love robin Williams miss him great actor love his films
Good bye Robin Williams.
Like video
I don't think that Andrew would have lived forever if he remained as a robot because a robots' mechanisms would eventually lose functionality, anyway.
How do you know how a positronic brain works? It's fictional concept. Further on the robot was obviously designed to have re-generating properties of its body functions.
However, when the robot got a human heart it was vulnerable to aging, even though the human heart is a very realiable machine we don't really know how long it can last.
Not if replaced
Top 10 movie for me
Vieš meno filmu, neviem sa ho dopatrat iba viem že je strašne dlhi.
As touching as it may seem in the ending, she pulls the plug and hopes to meet him on the “other side” but for robots, the “other side” doesn’t exist. Man can make a robot that acts, thinks, looks and feels like himself but cannot make a soul. Only God can do that. The robot would be better off serving humanity for the rest of its existence than trying to be human and being accepted as a human that dies…because after death…nothing.
Why serve when he can live?
As a human he will die but as a robot he can "live" and serve humanity for a long...long time.
@@davidvishnu227 die a free man. Not live as a slave.
Service to humanity is the best work of life especially in the field of medicine...saving the lives of others...not a bad occupation for a slave.
@@davidvishnu227 bruh.
Interestingly, this concept today isn't that controversial.
I say this with all love, that this subject still holds controversy. Look at the rage caused by transgender people wanting simple recognition and dignity to be able to love, live and die as who they are.
