Artificial Intelligence 2024 | Award Winning Short Film

The development of AI has become unstoppable. In recent years, automation has infiltrated every aspect of life. Medicine is performed in automated diagnostic centers. Agriculture is mechanized. Industry requires little human intervention. Some states in America have decided that if they put governance in the hands of AI, it could become a self-operating and self-sustaining system that, with minimal human intervention, would promote the most optimal society possible. One in which no human physica

l labor is required, creating a utopian society. After the success of their experiment, the question arose in Europe and England whether to follow suit. In the UK, a referendum decided the issue, as it did in the major European countries. Good evening, Britain. In the May referendum, the citizens of Great Britain decided to introduce a hybrid AI form of government. The Tories vito was rejected by the court today, so the hybrid AI form of government, which has been operating successfully in Europ

e for years, will be implemented from midnight on Sunday. All important information is available in the link below on the AI Britain app and at established information points. Police and emergency services are expecting demonstrations and riots. The authorities are there for ordering a curfew until 6 o'clock on Monday morning and are also asking everyone to keep calm and inform themselves over the next two days. Our future begins now. (keyboard clicking) What is she talking about? - Hmm? What do

you mean? They've been talking about nothing but the referendum for months. I know, but it's too soon. No, they've got no choice. You see, the Tories have already tried to put it off twice with some legal loophole. If they delay it now, the appeal could take years. But they can't do that. Robots cannot rule the country. Why not? They've been doing it in most European countries for years. They get rid of all the crime, the corruption and the other bad things. They get rid of the human factor. Ah

, I still don't understand why you're so surprised.

What and you're happy about this? Of course I'm happy about it. Every day I stomp into the same place. I have to make a good impression to keep up with the boot lookers. No one cares about how well you do actually do the job. It's just about impressing people. This is a professional environment. Not ab

out making friends. There's a reason why you haven't been promoted over these years. Maybe you should take it more seriously. It doesn't matter anymore. No more petty power politics. We can finally live a normal life. And how do you propose we live a normal life with no job? Well, like everyone else, we're going to get a universal basic income. Everyone's equal. No more rich and poor. Living our best life. You could calm down a bit. You've already cleaned the living room once today and now every

thing's at right angles. What do you want me to do? Hang onto my phone like you until it dies. Anything that fits. Time to find a hobby. TikTok is not a hobby. It's more than what you've got. Well, I wouldn't need a hobby if I still had a job. Are you saying you're nothing without your work? Now you're just twisting my words. Very hard to twist them when you say nothing but insults. You've got to sort yourself out. This is bad to watch. You need to look at yourself. Well, you need to look at you

rself. You're happy doing nothing. I'm going to play tennis. I don't know when I'll be back. Fine. I'll get you next week. How's the wife? She's not taking it well. She hadn't realised till she stopped working and had little she had outside work. And now, because she does nothing, there's nothing to talk about. Why don't you take her out somewhere? You know, take her somewhere fancy. I've told her that. But I can't get her out of this state. It's like she's in mourning. And the worst of it is, w

e have all the time in the world to enjoy ourselves, and she can't. Mmm. I know what. We could all go out together tonight, just the three of us. I think I could influence her. That's a good idea. I'll talk with her and then text you. - Uh, pub? - Yeah. - No work tomorrow? - Yeah. Come on. You haven't left the house in a week. It will do you good to get out for a bit Yeah, maybe you're right. It's just, I've heard not even the entertainment industry doesn't have staff anymore. I can't imagine it

being the same. Oh, I can't wait to see self-service pubs with automatic drinks dispensers. Of course, since the government took over running them, the owners aren't making a profit to this. Hold half of them. I guess that's reasonable. But I just can't imagine the atmosphere being the same by an AI technology-run pub. We'll see. Can I get the usual guys? Yes, please. Well, there's no point waiting for a waiter, is there? Please don't start. It's just a drink. Does it matter where it comes from

? Okay, I guess you're right. Where's those drinks? You haven't been in here for a while, have we? It's cozy. Well, when would we have come? You're always working unpaid overtime. Yeah, I know, but let's just make the most of this now. There you go. Let's drink to a new, free, more humane life. Cheers. Now let's dance. Cool. Yeah. Did you have a good time? Yeah, I guess so. I'm just gonna have to get used to the fact that this is the new way of life. We go out every night and have a good time be

cause we can. Is that such a big deal? No. I mean, yes. This is this extreme. And I know I buried myself with work before, and that's not healthy either. But I just feel like I have no motivation, no purpose. Nothing awaits me tomorrow. Everything awaits you tomorrow. We can go traveling. We can go on all the visits. We can visit every beach, mountain, hotel, restaurant in the world. There are no restrictions. We have true freedom. Freedom? Yeah, look, we can go visit all the best beaches, see a

ll the best hotels, but... Before you thought those were luxuries because they came with limitations. If you can do that every day, what is the point? And yeah, it's great thinking next week we can wake up at midday every day and eat our breakfast at lunchtime like teenagers. But then it becomes boring if you can just access that all the time. What inspires you? What makes you want to wake up in the morning? What are you so afraid of? I know that work isn't the meaning to life, but it inspires u

s, it motivates us. We improve and we learn every single day. And we all need that whether you like it or not. And look, it doesn't necessarily have to be a job, but we all need something that brings balance and structure to our lives every day. Without that, we're nothing. And now we've lost that. And yes, you may be happy about this for now, but aimless existence cannot be the motivation for humanity. If development, research and progress are not up to us, but we just stand from the background

, what's a consciousness higher than us delivers us a better life on a plate? Then why are we here?
