Digital Engagement #6
The film I chose was WALL-E because it is a childhood favorite and I will pass up the opportunity to talk about it. WALL-E is the last robot on Earth set with the task of cleaning which he had been doing for several hundred years. In this universe, Earth is completely barren and there is pretty much nothing left because the humans fled Earth years ago on a starship called Axiom. The only friend WALL-E had was a cockroach which is similar to an easter egg because it is often talked about that the cockroach would be the only living organism that would be left after an apocalyptic event.
In this movie, the humans that live on the ship are so fat that their only mode of transportation is floating chairs because their bones simply cannot bear the weight. I find this quite amusing because the older generations always talk about how Gen Z and Gen Alpha are becoming lazy due to their dependence on technical machines and the lack of manual labor skills compared to them. Humans are so reliant on technology that they have a robot or gadget for everything. At this point, they do not even raise their own children anymore or physically go and make food.
Throughout the years WALL-E started developing human feelings. He picked up body language and in his own way felt lonely being on the plant by himself. I feel a lot of this movie is the depiction of a Boomers’ worst nightmare. This is the embodiment of how people think society will develop if people start making robots that have feelings and honestly how irrational is that fear at this point? There are many theories that robots will one day take over the world because they are programmed to know all these things and people will start not being able to live without them. I do not think that robots can take over the world because they do what they are programmed to do they do not “learn” things they have algorithms to pull from but they can not use that information in situational circumstances.
