For my final presentation/essay on how empathetic robots in film alter the idea of singularity. For 21L.706 Film Studies. No copyright infringement intended; all rights go to the creators.

Singularity is the idea that machines could have the capacity to evolve at a faster pace than humans and is linked to the fear of robots gaining too much control. Blade Runner, AI, Bicentennial Man and I Robot present how this fear is complicated when Robots are presented as empathetic, humanistic creatures.
