AI in the Movies analyses the representation of artificial intelligence in film, from their first emergence in the 1950s up to 2020. These artificial intelligences take different some are digital AIs, some robot AIs, and yet others transition between material and digital forms making themselves almost indistinguishable from humans. Through a rigorous analysis of these representations, Murphy demonstrates how filmmakers erode the division between human and AI, by presenting character doubles, narrative parallels and eventually, identities in which the biological and artificial overlap and intersect in new hybrid forms. Identifying the aspects of AI science that fascinate filmmakers, this book outlines the key themes and tropes in AI film, including parentchild relationships, the female robot, humanAI doubles, parallels and hybrids, and AI death and mortality.
