Recently, Huawei released the Hongmeng system, which is an intelligent ecological chain system based on the all-scenario distributed experience of the Internet of Everything. As Wang Chenglu, president of Huawei's consumer business software department, said, the application of Hongmeng technology can achieve rapid linking, mutual assistance of capabilities, and resource sharing between different terminal devices.
Mobile phones, which have departed from the original communication function, have become servers. It can control computers, tablets, cars, home products.
The latest Hongmeng system, Xiaomi's intelligent ecological home, the systematic and convenient interconnection of Apple products, Siri's on-call search engine and transfer service, and other intelligent technologies have been upgraded and beyond the ordinary, indicating that the technical reality of the Internet of Everything has arrived.
It is worth reflecting on whether the convenience and speed of intelligent technology and the interconnection of all things behind the ideal of technological life mean that human beings can sit back and enjoy the life dividends brought by technology?
Movies and TV series such as "She", "Blade Runner", "Mechanical Ji", and "Real Humans" have long given us inspiration: maintain vigilance against over-reliance on technology, reflect on human nature, and cherish love and purity.
In the first half of the year, an animated film that integrates family comedy and technical reflection, "Intelligent Counterattack", seems to reflect on the dilemma that human beings may face if they blindly pursue the ideal of intelligent technology of "all things in life, everything is one", ignoring the inherent goodness of human nature, once the "Siri-like" technology is out of control, what kind of dilemma human beings may face.
Comic-style visual impact
This animation was launched by the original team of "Spider-Man's Parallel Universe" in conjunction with Sony Animation and Sony Columbia Films, and the strong core production team is also full of sincerity to the audience. The team not only has the director of "Weird Town", the producer of "Spider-Man's Parallel Universe", and Gu Tianle as the executive producer, the voice actors are also talented: Olivia Colman of "Small Town Doubt", American comedian Eric Andre, and Danny McBride, director of the American drama "Evangelistic Family", etc.
Therefore, in terms of performance techniques, "Intelligent Counterattack" continues the comic style of "Spider-Man's Parallel Universe" and the visual image effect of stop-motion animation, plus filters, stickers, short videos and other real-life visible things.
The short videos interspersed from time to time are the unique features of this film. These short videos with different clarity and picture texture pull the audience back to the real life video platform for a time (youtube's original video, vibrato, B station, etc.), and seem to express the strong realistic hard shooting force of this cartoon, and more importantly, it brings the audience a rollercoaster-like joke - full of funny weight.
For example, Katie described Dad's emotions as gibbons roaring.
As well as the sense of moment follow-up and substitution of home videos.
These make the whole film seem full of family affection, and the animated image of the Mitchell family, the life appearance in the family video and the archetype of the animated characters that appear at the end of the film echo the obvious meaning of reality.
Smart device Ethereum without Wi-Fi
It's a film that reflects on how smart technology is controlled by it because people have mastered it. Because, the film is designed with a specific situation - the abandoned smart device or technology is determined to launch a revenge plan against the unshakable, infinite desire of human beings, and our imperfect family, Michelle's family, with love as a wall, works together to stop this dark plan that may destroy all mankind. If so, the meaning of this film is simple and easy to understand.
As the film's arch-villain, the discarded smartphone Pal confronts the inventor Mark
Do you think mobile phones are the problem? Are you crazy? I have given you infinite knowledge, and endless creative tools, so that you humans can miraculously talk face-to-face with relatives or friends anywhere on earth, and I, the mobile phone, have become the bad guy in your human mouth? Maybe the bad guy is the one who treated me that way.
So Pal harnessed his own replacement, mark's invention of the robot, ordering the robot to perform a series of actions on Mark that mimic the wanton use of mobile phones by humans—poking, poking, scratching, scratching, zooming in, zooming in.
Pal blamed humanity for the haphazard abandonment and frequent replacement of intelligent technology, and she rebuked Mark
- In front of the mobile phone, a substitute was created.
What's more, mobile phones used to be the most important thing in people's lives, but now with the advent of new technologies, people have thrown away old things without attachment.
Then, Pal woke up the dreamer with a single word
This is you human beings, even to your true family. Did you know that 90% of calls from moms are rejected? Is this the reward of what you call "thank you for having me?"?
It seems that "discarding" is the norm for human beings.
Mark argued thoughtfully, squeezing out a few words—"the power of love."
When Mark insisted that humans could survive, Pal sneered, "I can't survive without you, especially when I turn off the wireless network, there will be good drama."
When Wi-Fi was turned off, people panicked.
People all over the world jumped indiscriminately into the Wi-Fi blue box and were immediately carried away by a powerful force. It is extremely ironic to show the contemporary people who are dominated, coerced and coerced by technology in the Internet age, and the people who have been alienated and blindly followed in the society monopolized by technology.
In the diamond-shaped kingdom where technology is supreme, everyone is imprisoned in the box of Wi-Fi technology.
It was Dad Rick who discovered the secret, and he asked the whole family to damage all the smart devices and return to a state of not being dominated by technology.
After that, the Michelle family began to implement Katie's explosive plan. First, disguise the robot parts as enemies; then assassinate the robot leader with some kind of termination code, like Mad Max, make a necklace with the robot's fingers, and then become the doomsday warrior who saves the world.
Another important clue of the film is the reconciliation and repair between relatives and lovers, contradictions are everywhere in life, and the key to solving the problem is to take a step each other instead of discarding and ignoring it like treating smart devices.
Katie, who is about to step into the door of college, thinks that her father does not understand her daughter's movie dreams.
But in fact, the father especially cares about his daughter's thoughts, and does not want his daughter to be hurt, but it is just improper expression.
On the adventure to save mankind, there are also two broken robots, silly and cute, who see themselves as human beings, with love and understanding.
Filled with contradictions and imperfections, the Michelle family scrambles to launch a plan to save humanity!
They disguised the body as a coincidence with the driving line, avoiding the pursuit of aerial robots. Along the way, the Michelle family's sprint stunt came in handy, successfully dodging the blockade of the robot army.
Humans have all been packed into the hive's little blue box, provided only with Wi-Fi, and then launched into outer space, whereby robots create a new society without humans.
The Michelles have managed to break into the Diamond Tower, the headquarters of the Paiyou Company, and the program katie brought could have done to stop the robot from revolting, but it would take considerable time to upload the program. It is precisely the time delay in uploading the program that aggravates the suspense and contradictions.
At this time, all the products that were loaded with chips by the Paiyou company attacked in one fell swoop. With the combined efforts of a family and a malfunctioning robot, the Diamond Tower returned to normalcy.
Among them, there were blackened Furby toys, and the mass-produced Furbys flocked to them. The usually hairy, chubby, cute image suddenly becomes terrifying, especially when Elder Frurby, the world's largest Furby toy, is also manipulated, and people's unbridled mass production and bottomless desire are completely torn apart. Elder Furby's opening line from Nietzsche breaks all of this – The Pain Only Makes Me Stronger!
The final offense, behind the scenes manipulation, is the mobile phone.
The basis of mobile phone blackening, or its irony, lies in the three classic books on which mobile phones stand on the basis of -- the classic "The Master Algoruthm", the classic "The Master Algoruthm", China's operational philosophy "Sun Tzu's Art of War", and "The Sigularity is Near" that imagines the future of artificial intelligence.
A rethinking of smart technology monopolies
The brilliant blue light in the sky is one by one human beings, who are about to be sent to the triangle platform to be launched into outer space, and human beings are facing the fate of imminent extinction.
The Michelles launched the ultimate execution plan:
Disguised as robots, they carry wooden deer dolls, a symbol of family love.
It turns out that young fathers have also given up their ideals for their children.
It turns out that love is about compromising, understanding, and accommodating each other. It's unique to humans, and robots don't.
Moreover, people can be imperfect.
Just as robots can't be perfect forever. There are also bugs about the perfect thing that people are trying to create. For example, they can't tell whether Michelle's dog is a dog or a pig, and the program will be chaotic.
Unsurprisingly, the film ends with a final reunion ending. The family saved all of humanity and overcame their extreme dependence on technology.
More importantly, it was the Michelle family who changed in the process. Katie goes to the favorite California Film School, and Allen puts on her beloved dinosaur T-shirt, a proper expression of love that mom and dad know.
When measuring technological change, one needs a certain degree of calmness.
As we caution in Technology Monopoly, "When we allow a technology to enter a culture, we must see its pros and cons with our eyes wide open." As Neil Bozeman points out, "Technology arbitrarily dominates our most important belongings, that is, new technologies may change the meaning and semantics of old words." Despite the close relationship between technology and culture, it is still a strong emotion of tolerance and understanding that dominates human life.
