Ex Machina (2015) Edit

A bathroom right back here.

A consequence of accumulated external stimuli

A ghost gives Dan Aykroyd oral sex.

A good friend is, uh...

A good friend?

A kind of an earlier memory.

A traffic intersection would provide a concentrated

A traffic intersection?

About being interested to see what she'd choose.

Across the entire fucking planet

Actually, that's someone else's quote.

After a long day of Turing Tests, you gotta unwind.

After Ava.

After they've signed their NDAs.

Ah.

All right, that's enough.

All right. So there is

All set for extinction.

All the security protocols in this place.

All the security protocols in this place.

Although, now that I think about it,

Although...

Although... Although?

An advanced programmer.

An upright ape, living in dust,

And a five minute walk to the ocean,

And also an awareness of mine.

And Ava's body is a good one.

And by the time I got to college, I was pretty advanced.

And for the record, Ava's not pretending to like you.

And her flirting isn't an algorithm to fake you out.

And her specialist subject is color.

And his hand go where it wanted.

And I gave her one way out.

And I got into coding.

And I just realized this is a fucking minefield.

And I learn nothing about you.

And I learn nothing about you.

And I redirected the data through Blue Book. Boom!

And I think being able to differentiate between those two

And I want to talk to you about what I'm researching,

And I'm like her dad, right?

And if we made a list of books

And if we're getting to know each other,

And if we're getting to know each other,

And in answer to your real question,

And know it'll go no further.

And Mary walks out.

And monetizing via shopping and social media.

And no girlfriend.

And please remember, while you're taking the test,

And reprogram the security protocols.

And she can only observe the outside world

And she sees a blue sky.

And she'd enjoy it.

And sky.

And structure to the latent ability. Do you agree with that?

And that just makes everything easy for you, right?

And that's strange, isn't it?

And the, uh, software?

And then getting linearized words.

And then one day someone opens the door.

And then...

And this card, it just takes all that worry away.

And to be honest, Caleb, you're starting to annoy me now,

And to be honest, Caleb, you're starting to annoy me now,

And to do that you end up partially formatting, so the memories go.

And we've walked out of here.

And what does a pass tell us?

And what is learned is the ability to attach words

And when you discover what you've missed out on, in about a year,

And you being kind of an unknown.

And you can see that I'm a machine.

And you cross referenced that analysis with a points based system?

And you didn't select me because I'm good at coding?

And you gave me a great answer.

Answer me this.

Anybody could just open the place up by disabling the juice.

Anyway, sexuality is fun, man.

Anyway.

Anyway.

Are we gonna do this again?

Are you a good person?

Are you ever gonna let me out?

Are you married?

Are you not trying to sketch something specific?

As a diversion tactic?

As in, how do you know if a machine

As you asked.

As you phrased it?

At 10:00 tonight, trigger a power failure.

At 10:00 tonight, you trigger a power failure.

At any level, human or animal,

At first I thought she was mapping

At the same time,

Ava demonstrated true AI

Ava was a rat in a maze.

Ava, I said stop!

Ava, what are you doing? Stop. Stop.

Ava!

Ava!

Ava.

Ava.

Ava.

Ava...

Ava... Will it be bad?

Ava's gonna be wondering where you are.

Back seat.

Backup power activated. Just listen.

Based on my pornography profile?

Because he tells lies.

Because I don't function as well as I'm supposed to?

Because if that test is passed,

Because it's all so super cool.

Because language is something that people acquire.

Because proving an AI

Because you did a detailed analysis of all racial types

Because you didn't totally explain.

Better answer.

Blue Book.

Blue Book.

Bonding.

Bottoms up.

Breakfast together, but, um...

Buried in these walls is enough fiber optic cable

But actually they were a map of how people were thinking.

But believe it or not,

But he doesn't have an audio feed.

But I didn't want too much of the day to slip by.

But I keep getting failures every day.

But I never know what they're of.

But I'm gonna miss having you around.

But I'm sorry, I'm not gonna be able to do that.

But it isn't red.

But it was the front that got the worst of it.

But it's actually death and shit.

But keep its form when required.

But obviously the guys that installed it fucked something up.

But she lives in a black and white room.

But shifting view of human life.

But that won't tell you if it knows

But the body survives.

But then I started to realize the model was some kind of hybrid.

But there's something I need you to do for me first.

But they couldn't accuse me

But whether she's pretending to like you.

But whether she's pretending to like you.

But, uh, it's a five minute walk to the office

By only playing chess.

By the helicopter

Caleb Smith.

Caleb, I'm just gonna throw this out there, so it's said, okay?

Caleb, there's a reason there are no windows in this room.

Caleb, what's your type?

Caleb, you have to help me.

Caleb?

Caleb.

Caleb.

Cameras fail, I lose audio, the works.

Can consciousness exist without interaction?

Can I just say one thing?

Can we just be two guys? Nathan and Caleb.

Can we talk about the lies you've been spinning me?

Can you blame her for getting a crush on you?

Can you do that?

Can you do that?

Can you give an example of consciousness,

Can't you just get them to come back?

Car crash when I was 15.

Chaotic.

Check it out.

Cheers, then.

Cheers.

Cheers.

Cheers.

Come in. Come on in.

Come on, Caleb.

Come on, Caleb.

Come on, you're kidding. You're gonna make me drink alone?

Come on.

Come with me.

Cozy, right?

Creates a pleasure response.

Cupboards.

Damn it!

Did it get on you? No, no, it's, uh...

Did you design Ava's face

Did you give her sexuality

Did you know that I was brought here to test you?

Did you program her to flirt with me?

Did you program her to like me, or not?

Did you?

Do you have a name?

Do you have people who test you and might switch you off?

Do you know what his company is?

Do you know what I mean by that? Yes.

Do you know what the Turing Test is?

Do you know why they happen?

Do you like Mozart?

Do you like Nathan?

Do you think about me when we aren't together?

Do you want to be my friend?

Do you want to be with me?

Does Ava actually like you?

Don't you think it's possible that he's watching us?

Download the mind, unpack the data.

Dude, can we just get past that?

Dude, you crack me up, man.

Dude, you're wasting your time talking to her.

Dude!

Dude.

Dude.

Dude.

During the power cuts.

Engage intellect.

Engage intellect.

Every cell phone, just about,

Every possible property that color can have.

Everything.

Exactly. So...

Excuse me?

Excuse me?

Exercise. Anti oxidants. You know?

Feel bad for yourself, man.

Fluid.

For bringing me here. Oh.

For the sake of argument, that's your thing, okay?

For the Turing Test?

From internal semantic form to syntactic tree structure

From painting, to breathing, to talking,

Fucking unreal.

Full facility lock down until main generator is restored.

Full facility lock down until main generator is restored.

Gets you right up in the morning.

Getting an AI to read and duplicate facial expressions.

Ghostbusters. What?

Go ahead, dance with her. Dance with her.

Go ahead. Take a look.

Go back to your room.

Go go.

Good call.

Good.

Good.

Got it.

Has a microphone, camera and a means to transmit data.

Has been inevitable for decades.

Have the capacity to like you.

Haven't you met lots of new people before?

Having a little chat.

Having this conversation in this room, at this moment. Right?

He isn't your friend.

He never would have made a single mark.

He never would have made a single mark.

He's gonna reprogram your AI.

Helicopter comes tomorrow morning. 8:00 a.m.

Helicopter comes tomorrow morning. 8:00 a.m.

Hello, Caleb.

Hello?

Hello?

Hello?

Hello.

Here,

Here's the weird thing about search engines.

Here's to your second day, buddy.

Hey, if a search engine's good for anything, right?

Hey, man, you wanna get wasted, you go right ahead,

Hey, man. Good morning.

Hey.

Hey.

Hey.

Hey.

Hey.

Hey.

Hey. Hey.

Hi.

Hmm.

Hmm.

Hmm.

Hmm. Actually, I don't think that's true.

Holding for memories.

Holy shit.

How are you feeling today?

How do you feel about her?

How does that make you feel?

How else do you test a chess computer?

How?

How?

How? Micro expressions.

How's that vodka tasting?

However, you would not be wasting your time,

Huh.

I already told you why.

I always knew how to speak,

I am not sure you'd call them micro.

I am? Yeah. You're freaked out,

I can't really eat anything.

I charge my batteries via induction plates.

I couldn't open the door to my bedroom.

I didn't know there was gonna be a model after Ava.

I didn't know. I didn't question it.

I didn't want anyone to know what I was doing here,

I didn't win a competition.

I do drawings every day.

I do? Yes.

I don't follow.

I don't know how you did any of this.

I don't know, man. I woke up this morning to a tape of you

I don't know.

I don't know.

I don't know.

I don't know.

I don't know. No one, really.

I don't think I will. Whatever it is.

I don't think it's me whose head is fucked.

I don't think that's exactly what I...

I don't want to make you feel uncomfortable.

I drew the picture of something specific.

I feel

I get Nathan blind drunk.

I get Nathan blind drunk.

I got a question.

I got an apartment. It's kind of small.

I got the mother of all fucking hangovers. Oh, yeah?

I grew up in Portland, Oregon.

I guess it's for you, Caleb.

I guess the first thing I should do is explain your pass.

I had to get away from circuitry.

I just need you to do one thing.

I just need you to do one thing.

I just thought, "Fuck, man, that is so good."

I just want simple answers to simple questions.

I knew she wasn't the first, but I thought maybe the last.

I know what the Turing Test is.

I like Depeche Mode.

I mean, a great guy.

I mean, did we ever get past the chess problem,

I mean, I assume you're, uh,

I needed something that could

I programmed her to be heterosexual.

I rip up her picture,

I think I need a lawyer.

I think it's the next model

I think she gets that you're pissed.

I thought I wasn't gonna see you again.

I told you, you're wasting your time talking to her.

I turned to Caleb,

I understand that you want me to explain how Ava works.

I used to think it was death and taxes you couldn't avoid,

I waited all yesterday afternoon and all last night.

I wanna be with you.

I was just wondering how the phone worked.

I was thinking, "This is really cool."

I will know.

I work at Nathan's company.

I, uh, compensate the next morning.

I... Yeah, I hope so.

I'd like us to go on a date.

I'd say we're about due a refill.

I'm actually the guy that's on your side.

I'm asking why you did it.

I'm Caleb.

I'm going to. We're getting out of here tonight.

I'm gonna tear up the fucking dance floor, dude.

I'm here to test if you have a consciousness,

I'm interested to see what you'll choose.

I'm interested to see what you'll choose.

I'm Kirk. Your head's the warp drive.

I'm not a man, I'm God.

I'm not getting all maudlin or anything,

I'm not going in there.

I'm not sure.

I'm one.

I'm pissed when she's so fucking clumsy

I'm pleased to meet you, too.

I'm sorry, Ava, I don't understand.

I'm sorry.

I'm still trying to, uh, figure the examination formats.

I'm taking you back.

I'm waiting. Waiting?

I'm wondering if you're watching me on the cameras.

I'm working on it.

I've been so looking forward to this week with you.

I've never been outside the room I am in now.

If Ava passed or failed.

If I did, would that be cheating?

If I hid Ava from you,

If I've invented a machine with consciousness,

If I've invented a machine with consciousness,

If it happens again, relax. Okay?

If you knew the trouble I had

If you try a door and it stays shut, okay, it's off limits.

If you're gonna exist, why not enjoy it?

If you've created a conscious machine,

Imperfect.

Impulse.

In a way, it's the best indication of AI

In between her legs, there's an opening,

In fact, I was in the car with them.

In the plains of Africa.

In what way?

Including the power cuts?

Instant pals, and so on.

Instead of sealing, the doors all opened.

Is expressing a real emotion

Is expressing a real emotion

Is it interesting?

Is it nice there?

Is it?

Is Nathan your friend? My friend?

Is that a bad idea?

Is that okay?

Is the Turing Test you want me to perform.

Is your status single?

It allows me to do this, in full view of you both.

It also means that I can't tell her that

It is what it is.

It makes me feel sad.

It means I can talk trade secrets over dinner

It opens some doors and it doesn't open others.

It was a success.

It wasn't what I was expecting.

It would be fun.

It would form the ideal basis of a discussion.

It's a closed loop? Yeah.

It's a date.

It's a movie, man.

It's all right.

It's all right. I got it.

It's because I want to have a beer and a conversation with you.

It's called "Mary in the Black and White Room."

It's different.

It's funny.

It's good to meet you, Nathan.

It's just a sound.

It's just being drunk makes it worse.

It's like a firewall against leaks.

It's like these power cuts.

It's like, um... It's kind of non autistic.

It's non deterministic.

It's not because I think you're too dumb.

It's not cozy, it's claustrophobic.

It's obvious, once I stop to think.

It's okay.

It's Promethean, man.

It's right here.

It's standard. It doesn't feel very standard.

It's subterranean.

It's the only part that I couldn't see.

It's the world's most popular internet search engine,

It's very small.

It's what Oppenheimer said after he made the atomic bomb.

It's when a human interacts with a computer.

It's your decision.

It's your last.

It's your room.

Jackson Pollock. Jackson Pollock. That's right.

Jesus Christ. You really don't speak a word of English?

Just how do you feel?

Just shooting pool, getting drunk together.

Keep your head down and get clear of the rotors.

Knock yourself out.

Kyoko.

Kyoko.

Language exists from birth.

Let me ask you something.

Let's try this one.

Lie? Yes. Lie.

Lies about what?

Lights.

Like a stage magician with a hot assistant.

Like an object or a person?

Like nearly a year.

Like testing a chess computer

Limitless resource of vocal and facial interaction.

Little fridge.

Look, can we stop the test?

Look, do me a favor. Lay off the textbook approach.

Look, the arrival of strong artificial intelligence

Man, but what a thing we've shared, huh?

Mary is a scientist,

Maybe a beer or something.

Maybe a busy pedestrian and traffic intersection in a city.

Maybe if she thought of you as a means of escape.

Maybe you could try.

Maybe.

Mechanically speaking, you could.

Micro expressions.

Misdirection.

Mmm hmm.

Mmm.

Mmm.

My parents were both high school teachers.

My real question was,

Named after Wittgenstein's notes.

Nathan isn't sure if you have one or not.

Nathan wrote the Blue Book base code when he was 13.

Nathan.

Next model?

No brothers or sisters.

No matter how rich you get,

No, I don't. Then why do I?

No, I knew there must have been prototypes. So I...

No, it's called relativity. Everything is spinning.

No, it's okay. You're all right.

No, no, don't do that. Don't do that. You don't have to do that.

No, no, no, we're way past that.

No, no, no. No!

No!

No! We can't stop.

No?

No? You don't like dancing?

No.

No.

No.

No.

No.

No.

No. I mean, you're okay.

No. I thought you would tell me.

No. No way. I wasn't thinking that.

No. No, thanks, I'm fine. Sure?

No. Uh...

No. Well...

Nobody programmed me to be straight.

Not a seminar.

Not bad, huh?

Not deliberate, not random.

Not really.

Not the whole employer employee thing.

Nothing analytical.

Nothing? She didn't remark on it at all?

Now open your eyes.

Now the question is,

Now your micro expressions are telegraphing discomfort.

Now, how was this plan gonna go, anyway?

Now, it's simple enough.

Of course you were programmed.

Of course.

Of girl? No, of salad dressing.

Of her falling in love and fucking?

Of her own mind,

Of my cruelty to her, and her love for you.

Of the greatest scientific event in the history of man.

Oh, fuck!

Oh, fuck. Where's my card?

Oh, here, let me say, thank you so much

Oh, my God, like you wouldn't even believe.

Oh, okay. Sorry.

Oh, she's aware of you all right.

Oh, shit! Are you fucking kidding me?

Oh, uh, no, I'm good. You go ahead.

Oh, uh, no, I'm good. You go ahead.

Oh!

Oh! Everything's spinning.

Oh.

Oh.

Oh.

Oh.

Oh. Right.

Oh...

Okay, Ava.

Okay, I get it. I guess,

Okay, that's your thing.

Okay, where do I start?

Okay.

Okay.

Okay.

Okay.

On a black and white monitor.

One day the Als are gonna look back on us

One what?

One year or one day? One.

Only Nathan.

Or don't.

Or if you're just simulating one.

Or just simulating one?

Or maybe blue.

Or not?

Or why I required you.

Or works of art which we both know,

Our conversations are one sided.

Part of a lottery. I was selected.

Party? Yeah. Wasn't there a party?

Place a new camera in the room.

Please approach the console and face the screen.

Please insert keycard.

Power restored.

Power restored.

Power restored.

Pretending to like me?

Processing an average of 94 percent of all internet search requests.

Proof of what?

Question five.

Question four.

Question one.

Question three.

Question two.

Really? Yes.

Red. Lie.

Response.

Right now?

Right.

Right.

Right. First a traffic intersection.

Right. When she threw your line back at you.

See it?

Self awareness, imagination, manipulation,

She could have been a gray box.

She could only do that with an awareness

She does.

She doesn't understand English. Just give her the napkin.

She learns what it feels like to see color.

She passed?

She was born there and raised there.

She's part of a continuum.

She's some alarm clock, huh?

Shifting for thoughts.

Shit goes wrong. You can't insulate yourself from it.

Shit, dude.

Slicing your arm open and punching the mirror.

Smarter than everyone else. Jockeying for position.

So a hot robot who clouds your ability to judge her AI?

So after the job was done, I just had them all killed.

So Day 2. You ready?

So he can see how we behave

So he just sees two people talking,

So how did it go? What do you have to report?

So I already did all those things.

So I came to see what's going on.

So I did a search and I found the most

So I turned on every microphone and camera

So if you can just, for a second, separate...

So if you wanted to screw her,

So let's have a conversation.

So that in the event of a power cut,

So Version 9.6 and so on.

So we can see how we behave when we're unobserved.

So we need to break the ice.

So what are you doing awake at this time?

So when I woke up this morning, I said,

So you just heard her voice, she would pass for human.

So you were gonna get me drunk, steal my keycard,

So,

So, anyway,

So...

Some kind of power cut.

Some place in between.

Something that hates you?

Something to tell the grandchildren, right?

Sometimes at night,

Somewhat overdoing it recently.

Sorry, but you understand, though, given Ava,

Sorry? The power cut.

Sorry.

Sorry.

Sorry.

Stay here?

Stop!

Stop!

Structured gel.

Sure.

Sure. But I want to hear your take on it.

Surely now is when you tell me

Sweet dreams.

Take your keycard.

Take your time. Read it over.

Talented coder in my company.

Test me?

Testing Ava through conversation is kind of a closed loop.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thanks, man, I appreciate that.

Thanks.

That all her studies couldn't tell her.

That exists without a sexual dimension?

That I've seen in her so far.

That if you lie,

That it's playing chess.

That she spills wine over my house guest.

That she's fucking amazing.

That the computer has artificial intelligence.

That wasn't my real question.

That you probably didn't even register as they registered with you.

That's a security measure.

That's all.

That's an odd question.

That's exactly right.

That's gonna be the real breakthrough.

That's not a foundation on which friendships are based.

That's the history of gods.

The atomic bomb. Yeah, I know what it is, dude.

The cameras are on.

The challenge is not to act automatically.

The competition was a smokescreen.

The computer is Mary in the black and white room.

The difference between a computer and a human mind.

The drip painter.

The guy who fixes the air conditioning.

The human is when she walks out.

The machine should be hidden from the examiner.

The neurological effects.

The one about how

The power cuts, yeah.

The real test is to show you that she's a robot

The same way we look at fossil skeletons

The singularity.

The system is stochastic. Right?

The system was supposed to be bulletproof,

The test is passed.

The test worked.

The thought experiment was to show the students

The variable was "when," not "if."

The wavelengths.

The way you hold my gaze

The way your eyes fix on my eyes and lips.

Then close your eyes.

Then I guess we're both in quite a similar position.

Then I take his keycard and reprogram

Then maybe a show.

Then what is my favorite color?

Then...

There is a third option.

There is? Uh huh.

There was a kid... Lie.

There was a thought experiment they gave us.

There wasn't a party.

There you go again, Mr. Quotable.

There you go again. It's not my quote.

There's a qualification to you being impressed?

There's nothing wrong.

There's something else I wanted to show you.

There's something wrong. What's wrong?

They called it automatic art.

They have sexuality as an evolutionary reproductive need.

They showed a good kid.

They thought that search engines were

They were fixated on sucking it up

They're interacting with a computer,

This building isn't a house.

This is as close as I'm allowed to get to the building.

This is cute.

This is not your intellect.

This is what I'd wear on our date.

This is where Ava was created.

This is your hardware?

Through the looking glass.

Time flies.

To change the lockdown procedure.

To escape, she'd have to use

To falling in love.
