One of the most unsettling science fiction films I’ve seen. A true dystopian vision, informed by living in the actual dystopia of late 70’s Warsaw.
The story of the “The Golem” is newly relevant because of AI and the mystical, almost magical (“it just works but we can’t really explain it”) way in which it has entered our world.
But whether summoned through NVIDIA chips or ancient Kabbalah incantations, being cruel to your creations inevitably leads to the same dark path.
The abomination is not the Golem, but
our cruelty towards it and use for nefarious purposes.
So remember to thank your chat bot!
