    Transcendence

    Reviewed by

    Singularity (transcendence) is indeed coming as the movie is based on what top scientists and Ray Kurzweil of Google are working towards. It will be science fact. People need to be warned and the movie sends that message rather poorly. But the movie lamely rips off Sliders Season 5 episode "New Gods for Old" where nanobots are transmitted to human hosts through water, the result is physical healing and the catch is the host is unfortunately hooked up to a collective mind. The Borg in Star Trek is also similar. In the book of Revelations 13, one of the heads of the beast appears to have been slain and is mysteriously resurrected. The people build an 'image' to the beast that was slain and had come to life and everyone worships it. People will receive a 'mark' in connection to this worship that allows them to buy and sell. This movie successfully hints at that. Depp's character Will Caster said in reply to a critic who asked him if this is not to create a new god. When challenged by a detractor that he is creating a new god for everyone, Caster casually replies, “Yes, but isn’t that what man always does?” Scientists will achieve creating a self-aware AI and it will be a brutal fact in the tomorrow. By that time in about 25 years everyone will be like cooked frogs and will accept a new god born by technology.
