As I write this in May of 2024, chat GPT 4o is now available for my use. It appears the have abilities quite close to the computer namesake of this movie. I am easily able to have both text and audio communications with the system. The degree of human-like conversational capability is remarkably similar to the machine this movie portrays. Indeed, it's ability to emote is far greater. While Collosus is "all business" as it were, chat GPT 4o is all of Collosus' power wrapped in a velvet glove of humanity.
Clearly no one is yet proposing that we link our nuclear arsenal to this device, but might chat GPT not somehow convince certain officials or groups to potentially give it such control? The point I'm making is that this quite old story now has at least the technical possibility of coming true. It's rather the reverse of 2001 a space Odyssey which has come to be regarded as wildly overly optimistic of mankind's capabilities. It definitely deserves a watch!
