Ex Machina

The movie, "Ex Machina" is about robots or AI, artificial intelligence.  A robot, Ava, is built to see if it can pass for human with all the emotions of a human.  The robot looks like an attractive woman to the human who is brought in to test her.  We find out that "she" can hate.  She hates her maker or creator.  We think she is like a damsel in distress because her maker is going to disasemble her, destroy her, to make a more improved model, the next generation.  What we find out is that the robot feels no compassion or empathy.  She seeks only to survive and escape intact.  She outwits the human mind. With no compassion, she kills her maker and leaves the human who was testing her, to starve, imprisoned in the compound.  She has no empathy for his suffering.   She escapes and survives.  Robots would make great soldiers in war.  They won't feel compassion or empathy.  Kill and win.  That is one of the reasons I find war to be wrong.  It makes robots of people.  Do real robots feel post traumatic stress?
