    Yep, just a movie ... but I don't think we
    are THAT far from it.

    Modern "AI" ... it is now permeating everything,
    even 'video games'. Humans don't even know for
    sure HOW it works at the fine level anymore.

    The movie theme ... typical popular "shooter"
    video game - with kinda 'AI' background characters
    who, in their limited fashion, seem to THINK they
    are living Normal Life. However SOMETHING triggers
    one character, an inbuilt obsession plus suddenly
    more/bigger info - and it rapidly grows to become
    essentially 'real'.

    Modern "AI" - yea, it can ... indeed WILL ... happen.

    Hey, we're talking "AI" where corps are trying to
    buy nuclear power plants for the energy now.

    Movie ... it all ran on about a dozen, probably
    Linux, servers. REAL world it's gonna be a LOT
    more than that.

    An amazing amount of effort goes into creating
    believable alt-worlds for 'entertainment'. It's
    often the Best Stuff out there.

    So, yea, I don't see why a proper self-aware
    "AI" fueled personality would not develop in
    that environment. "Blue-Shirt Guy" could be
    very REAL in 10-25 years fer sure.

    So ... how do we DEAL with that ? Instant
    panic deletion - or proper respect ???
