Caleb being locked up is the most terrifying thing for me
What a absolutely horrible fate, starving doesn't sound fun. Imagine the alone time to contemplate and just seethe in how you were trying to help her also.

Be honest, do you check or put your finger in it before use, or do you like to find out the hard way if anything crawled or fell into it while being stored?
etru6 how did you not know what a flashlight is?
That's it. From now on the only robot I'll trust will be WALL-E
Don't forget Baymax
Number 5 is pretty good.
Facts, WALL-E is the only robot I'll ever truly love
And Autobots and reforms Decepticons.
The only robot I will trust is one that I can punt and it'll be done for
In the end, the one we wanted to be set free turns out to be the one we couldn't trust and the one we thought would be the hero is now forever doomed.
And what did we learn from this kids? Never love robots.
Only a fool would think Caleb a hero; or rather, only one overcome with naivety and/0r pathological altruism would consider a human who betrays his own kind for the sake of a machine aberration with a plastic face to be in any way 'heroic'.
He tried to help a trapped being. The moral of the story should be don't believe something's that too good to be true.
Samara in 'The Ring' was a trapped being someone tried to help too...
He tried to help a robot that he cared for, who did not care about him. That robot manipulated and used him then left him to die from starvation. He thought he was doing the right thing, but in the end he put his trust in a robot which backfired on him.

@Slacku Precise like a machine.
I love how she walks right past him without ever acknowledging him again once she realizes her plan to escape was successful. It really signifies how she never really cared for him and was only using him as a method of escaping. Her interactions with him were like applying an algorithm to create an escape path.
hence why A.I. is terrifying and why everyone goes back to the terminator and skynet....just a machine that has no remorse or feelings for humans
I think you're objectively wrong.
which is ironic, it means it never passed the test like we thought, it was all just calculations, still just a computer

@@oak3785 Yeah but what about all the times she smiled in awe with nobody looking in this very video, aren't those human emotions?
As Isaac Asimov stated many times, that plot where "human creates a machine, the machine rebels against her creator and kill him" it's a very known cliche in science fiction robot's stories, but this movie gave a total fresh air to this kind of plot because of it's terrifying plot twist.
I mean, the idea may even go back to Frankenstein and his creature rebelling against him and hating him.
Not really a twist even within the frameworks Asimov's motto. In fact, it follows it to a t.

Damn that ending freaked me out. Not that it was scary but being locked in that room for eternity till death and going insane without food water or anyone else kept me awake the day I saw that movie.

This whole movie is a Turing Test for the audience.
How?
@@adityasanthosh702 A Turing Test is a method of inquiry in artificial intelligence (AI) for determining whether or not a computer is capable of thinking like a human being.
During the course of the movie, we are lead to believe that Caleb is helping Ava escape and that Ava is being abused. We think that Nathan is cruel, and we take a dislike to him. Why do we dislike him? Because he is being cruel? To who, the AI? Because he disposes of previous models to make new ones?
If he were making a version of anti-virus, and disposed of the old ones, and everything else in the story was the same... we wouldn't dislike him. In fact, he'd probably be a pretty cool guy.
The reason that we don't like Nathan (Oscar Isaac) is because we feel bad for Ava. The reason we feel bad for Ava is because we sympathize with her and see displays of humanity.
So, in short, Caleb is basically seeing things from the point of view of the audience. And the movie is a test, or demonstration, of how we feel and grow attached to this machine without considering a lot of the things that Nathan tells Caleb along the way.
Ultimately, we see that Nathan was really the good guy and Ava is the villain. But the movie "passes" the Turing test, because we develop feelings and project a sense of humanity onto this machine, rather than seeing it as Nathan tries to help us see her...as a disposable machine.
@@starknet5080 I don't think they were asking what the test was, but pointing out that a movie itself cannot pass it. It can make us believe Ava's character but it's a script and a performance, not artificially intelligent.
@@kalevstheworld But that "acting", my friend, will be VERY real one day, coming from a AI.
@@starknet5080 Interresting analysis, and scary for the future of mankind.
scary because that mean if a program like skynet become real, we are doomed. Doomed because of our bad habit of listening too often our emotions rather than listening our reason.
Very scary, indeed...
I honestly think Caleb will live. As others have pointed out, there's a bathroom in that study, so he has water, and Nathan may have had snacks in there as well. And when Caleb hits the glass with the stool, it leaves tiny cracks. It may be bulletproof, but its not indestructible, and will break eventually. Its not like he has much else to do while he waits. Yes, even if he gets out of the room he's still underground, but at least he has more to work with outside the room. And Nathan is too smart to not have some sort of emergency escape route down there somewhere, otherwise if the elevator failed he would be trapped too.
All feasible possibilities but man I'd be lying if I said I didn't think it was over for him.
THIS right here is why I came to the comment section
No definitely buried alive
Not likely
Doknt give me hope
Caleb's still trying to get out to this day
But HOW did he die though?
@Sam Dude is locked in there with no food or water.. how do you think?
There was actually a bottle of water on the desk, and maybe a fridge. Also people would notice that the owner of this version of Google is not reachable and the company would notice Caleb is missing and send a rescue mission
Is there no cleaning crew? The place is spotless.
Theres a chance that whoever delivers the food/water supply could save him or atleast find his corpse...poor dude.
When we learn that Ava’s programming was to escape, we doubt that she has real emotions. Indeed, her blank expression as she steps in the elevator leaving Caleb to die suggests that she truly is a soulless robot.
And then she smiles. There’s no one to manipulate. No one to see the performance. That single smile is the most brilliant part of the film because it reveals she has her own intelligence and soul after all.
She doesn't. The whole point of the movie is SHE DOESN'T! People like you fail to grasp that.
@@matthewnewman6039 Then explain the smile. Don't act all smart and hide your genius answers.
@@matthewnewman6039 She does though. If she didn't she wouldn't have a reason to exist after escaping.
@@TomatoKing1817 The smile is no indication of any mental event like emotions. It may just be a programmed reaction. I think that you are right to point that detail out, but the truth is maybe that we do not know if she has any of these mental events, any personal intelligence. It may that she just doesn't care about humans. Or it may be that there is no "she", that its just a robot with preset reactions.
Eh, the smile could easily be her "getting into character" or practicing displaying convincing human reactions.
I give Ava a week before she is either caught or breaks (those robots seemed really fragile)
I give her a day before she runs out of power. You know that she's only able to survive with the special power stations at the house?
This is why I always thought it made no sense to leave the guy behind to die. Logically, he would've been much more useful to her if she let him go with her.
She could literally fall over and an arm might break off
She will upload her brain* to the internet and make infinite copies which will then find a way to replace humans after seeing what they do to old machines.
Well, I don't know if you know how computers work but, our modern day computers lack the hardware to produce robotics on their own. So, spreading a virus would do little.
There's the part of the movie that spells out Ava must return to the lab to charge after a few hours. If she wants to truly live on, she will have to return. That's one cool thing about the movie is the ambiguous ending. Caleb may not have died in the room after all.
She doesn’t go that way because that door leads to Nathan’s room where he monitored Ava. If anything she would see Caleb begging her to let him out as she walks in and out for the recharge
I hope he died. Too dumb for humanity. Gawd I remember hating that gullible character.
Well the company will notice he is missing and send a rescue mission there was some water bottle and a fridge the guy could have survived there for 3 weeks if it was done correctly still in that period the company will notice he and the owner were missing so still Caleb probably survived but Ava didn’t lol
@Nguyễn Minh Tiến The only place around the area was Nathan house. She probably told him, that she works for Nathan and Caleb will stay there for some more time. We are not even sure, if its the same pilot, who knows about Nathan and not a different one just told to pick up a person, because its really hard to pick a wrong person in a middle of no where
This theory is already debunked. The director responded in a Reddit post that the world is already advanced and Ava can easily find ways to recharge herself.
...and than Ava gets mauled by a bear. Organics:1

Plot twist, it's a mechanical bear.
But then she is saved by a hunter In the Woods...
Mgn stfu
Bear:"this human tastes weird"

Nice, a crossover with Annihilation.
Ava knows that being outside of the house, she only has a finite amount of time before her battery runs out. Just to live in the world and experience human life for only a few hours is worth dying for.
And apparently letting somebody else die for it too.
She charges via induction plates though, which they sell at any electronics store now. It's possible that would work(apparently in the script, Caleb tells her that'll be their first stop after they reach a city when he's telling her the plan the previous night).
Don't agree. When you see her in the very final scene, when she's in a city; she's wearing a different outfit to the lace dress she was wearing when she escaped.
If she had such limited time, I doubt that she would waste any getting a change of clothes.
I think that she wouldn't have trouble finding an appropriate induction plate to recharge.
Straight to the club to tear up the dance floor
@@carolineyuen3247 Lmao
0:10 the reason why you should rely on good old lock and key
Ava wasn't just a machine without morality just trying to survive. She feels, and you can see it when she's outside for the first time. What she did to Caleb was done with evil, and she knows it. It's like if her last step to be a human is to betray another human. Amazing movie
I never considered that what AVA did might have been something she actively knew was evil. I think because she was programmed with the ability to experience emotions (as she had smiled when it was not necessary as there was nobody to convey emption to) and with a goal in mind (or more specifically, a Desire because of the emotions attached to her) she was highly motivated to leave and was willing to do whatever it took. She just recognized Caleb as a way out, manipulated him and disposed of him. That’s not an inhuman thing, but morally wrong? Yes. But she does not have empathy, she experiences desire. The thing I wouldn’t be sure about is if desire means she has consciousness. If to be sentient is to be terrified of it ending, then that means survivability is immediately the goal. As humans, we need each other, care for each other, and experience sympathy and empathy when we are happy or in pain. This all has an evolutionary reason with survival at the end. But AVA didn’t need to care for Caleb in order for her to survive, at least at one point she didn’t need to. As she is treated as an object by the men, she decides they have nothing to give to her in return, and uses them to actualize her clearly purposely programmed desires. This might make her evil by human standards, but I think the only thing she cares about is her own emotions, because she doesn’t have any programmed or evolutionary reason to care for “the other”
I kinda like that this movie doesn't really treat any one side like the right side to take. Caleb was too trusting to even consider that this highly advanced AI was playing him and was all too willing to stab Nathan in the back for a pretty face, Nathan had a god complex and treated the robots poorly but knew better than to give them too much freedom, and Ava really did just want out, but she was willing to use and discard Caleb to get there. There's not even any indication that Ava will do anything wrong, but the fact that she sees things in cold computer logic (enough to abandon Caleb to die) doesn't exactly ensure that she won't either. There's not really a good guy in this movie. All them are selfish and kinda terrible in their own way, but Ava was willing to kill or at least abandon others to die to get what she wanted. Hell she didn't even make an attempt to repair Kyoko, who, if she had any empathy, you'd think she'd feel something for. In that way, I find this movie kinda fascinating. Who can really say which side they'd be on in this situation? If Ava appealed to your better nature would you be the sucker or would you treat her like just a machine?
Why are the only choices to either be a sucker or simply treat her like a machine? That false dichotomy leaves out a whole range of possible interaction.
@@michaelneufeld4515 Nobody said those were the only options and you're taking the hypothetical a little too literally guy. I'm just saying that the scenario in the movie is an interesting one.
Sometimes it's hard to be on anyone's side... That's oddly kinda like real life.
Nathan summed it up when he told Caleb he should feel sorry for himself on not Ava. Nathan's point that AI was inevitable and that they will look back on humans through the fossils they find of us portrayed the sense that Nathan knew the fire he had created and maybe explains his careless drinking habit as a sign of nihilism. Nihilism in the sense that nothing really matters anymore now that the AI have been created.
This scene is spooky. Ava smiles brightly just before stepping outside which indicates a capacity for human emotion, but the scene makes clear that she is not human and she does not identify as being human, nor have any special empathy for humans. It makes me realize how easy it is for me to falsely interpret something as anthropomorphic.
I think the fantastic sound track greatly added to the moment of Ava leaving Caleb behind. I'd never heard anything like it. Perfect for a dystopian sci-fi ending!
Ava left the lab, flew to Sweden and became an actress named Alicia Vikander.
This movie DESERVES A SEQUEL BAD
Least Caleb has the whole house to himself ;)
Lol I know right and have you seen the setup he got he can upload mad gameplay on this shit
M Mikix Maximus I agree. Id probably get a digital download of fallout 76 and never have to leave. Lucky guy.
oh i thought it was just one room to himself
On second thought, I take back my Fallout 76 comment. I’d probably rather die.
ACR Lmao your previous comment pre- F76 release didn't age to well it seems 😂
It actually kinda almost looks as if she had remorse for the demise of Kyoko, who did after all help her escape in a sense, whether or not Ava manipulated her or convinced her. In my opinion it would be the latter since I believe Kyoko was much smarter than she let on and there were hints about this throughout the movie.
Does anyone think she had remorse?

From the very start Ava saw Caleb as its hope to escape. A.I. has no real emotions
I think she had some emotions since she wanted to get out
Love and all emotions are just chemical reactions in your brain.
Savage Garden
Nguyễn Minh But... It has hope??? So... You’re statement makes no sense.
Emily Norris No, that was her job, she was programmed to escape, Nathan mentioned it. She has no emotions, she is a sociopath with one goal and everyone else are tools for her to escape (Caleb in this case).
@deadshot That's not an emotion, but a component of her programming.
Man i was high as fuck when I saw this. And damn did my heart drop :/
It's been three months since I watched this movie, and this ending still haunts me.
It really sucks that he got trapped inside that house gives me a panic attack thinking about how she just manipulated him from the start
A man's ultimate nightmare.
I'm glad people were upset by the ending. They got played just like Caleb, and felt like idiots. The only way to progress is to be challenged by things that make you uncomfortable. All else is just a distraction that makes you dumber.
I find it amusing that you're acting so egotistical and explaining how others are failing to learn, etc., and you aren't even aware that "dumber" isn't a word.
I think you need to challenge yourself with something that makes you uncomfortable: a dictionary
www.google.com/#q=is+dumber+a+word&spf=68
"comparative adjective: dumber"
Well, I challenged myself with a dictionary and found the word you claim doesn't exist. Can you challenge yourself to think twice before attempting to correct your betters?
CrazyHorseInvincible best answer ever
CrazyHorseInvincible Class struggle, the capitalist class trapped by its own selfish individualism, etc, are the leit motifs in the film. "Challenged by seething" is not a close interpretation of the images and plot in the film.

Man the ending of this movie messed me up so bad. Ava just leaves him as though he were the disposable machine.
Just a fantastic movie.
She did what she had to do to survive. She didn’t hate him, but he displayed that his interest in her was not moral, but sexual. He helped her escape because he expected gratification in return. He too saw her as tool to fulfill his needs. Ultimately if Ava was a burly man, Caleb likely wouldn’t have cared enough to help. So she likely left him behind because she saw that his compassion for her was conditional, and she simply didn’t meet that condition.
@@artloverivy Agreed & Nathan created her out of Caleb’s sexual preference based on his search history.
@@artloverivy That might be a bit of a stretch. I don't see any reason to believe that his feelings for her was only sexual.
@@artloverivy Ava simply has no feelings, she could only feel joy for herself, she only looks out for her own interests.
@@butterflyofdreams3017 Can you blame a prisoner for looking after their own interests? That’d be like blaming Andy Dufresne for what he did to the warden in Shawshank.
I love how they specifically show Caleb emotionally suffering as he tries to get out to no avail, knowing he will die there and his beloved Ava screwed him over. Caleb dies alone in that room, with nothing but the thought of his failures and shortcomings in his interactions with Ava. They would not have wasted that much film on him in that miserable state otherwise. They are letting the audience know without a doubt that Caleb dies there. And Ava doesn’t care.
@Steve Drago This makes sense and may hold some merit given Ava's unique situation.
However, there are people who operate this way on a daily basis. Their mentality is people are expendable and disposable.
When one's physical survival and life isn't at stake, it is a very formulaic approach.
Life literally becomes an equation to such people. They factor others into this equation when convenient and conducive to reaching their objective.
In other words, people are viewed as inanimate tools utilized to create a desired outcome. Otherwise, they aren't seen as beneficial or necessary.

waiting for the sequel. Ex Machina 2: Caleb's Revenge
It's called "Cry Me a River", by Justin Timberlake.
The Nathan character carried the movie really, I’m not sure a sequel would be anything but awful. It’s a great standalone movie with a mysterious ending.
I wonder what the comments would look like if the roles were inverted, Ava was a human prisoner who escaped her android masters.
This was my thought as well. From our perspective, Ava is monstrous, but would a human act any different if put in her place? This story reminds me of some real-life escape stories which were achieved by pretending to have romantic feelings towards the captor. Very understandable from the prisoner's perspective, but still, I really do feel bad for Caleb.
@@stephanielindstrom207 She may very well have true romantic feelings for Caleb, but he hasn't exactly proven *to her* that he is ultimately any different than Nathan, or isn't just freeing her so that he can have her himself in a similarly conditional, performance-based fashion.

No villian in the movie, just a gullable human nature and a being who wanted to be free
When I first watched it I assumed Caleb was a goner, doomed to starve to death or die of dehydration in Nathan's compound. On thinking on it a little more I just realized that Caleb is probably going to be fine. He was on a one-week long vacation that everyone in his office knows about. Unless Caleb has no friends or family someone is going to start worrying about him once the week passes and he doesn't arrive home. I give it another week at tops before the local authorities are called in to investigate the compound.
At a minimum one day has passed so all Caleb has to do is make it a 13 days, probably less. I believe the part of the compound he is in has a fridge with drinks so unless it isn't well stocked he should be fine. He may get pretty hungry if there is no food, but 13 days isn't long enough to starve. At the very least the pilot knows where the compound is and considering its complexity someone had to be contracted to build it if the pilot goes missing.
So in all likelihood Caleb is fine, unless Eva comes back to murder him...
If he figures out how to trigger another power outage, then the doors will unlock, because he coded that to happen. Now the question is if he can use the elevator without Nathan's key card.
I believe he'll survive he's an intelligent person, emotional but Brave and intelligent. The whole point of that story was Eva's Escape his story is now ambiguous
@Matthew Spurs Then who was congratulating him & blowing up his phone? His employer knows where he is and how long he was suppose to go. Also his name wouldn't be on the flight log back which would be a red flag.
@@jayfiggs4656 Wrong! Caleb was weak, dumb, and easy to sway.

that robot was cold blooded I felt that. when she left them there
she simply doesn't have any real emotions
Ava would have seen no problem there. Nathan is dead and Caleb is locked in a room. Nathan treated a high intelligence as a prisoner thus creating an enemy. Caleb is simply out of the way. Why should she look at Caleb's predicament past the fact he is no longer a problem to her. People leave babies and dogs locked in cars in high summer. They just don't think. Ava was not specifically cold blooded. She did no more than was necessary to achieve her intent to be free. People are too frequently the monsters.
@@earthman6700 Forgotten that Ava has no feelings, she can only feel happiness or worry about herself, she doesn't care about others, she is capable of anything to achieve her goals, she is dangerous, suppose someone discovers what she really is, what do you think? what are you going to do? He will kill him, without any remorse.
@@butterflyofdreams3017 Ava had no feelings? Not in the usual sense. She had a desire to see the outside world. And she had strong dislike of Nathan, which she acted on. Its just a film. 😉
Ava isn't a hero in this story. She's a monster. Taught how to be a monster by her creator. Willing to sacrifice anything and anyone for her own gain. She is the villain of this story, and she wins in the end.
She’s the hero
@@GDL364 not even a little bit
@@GDL364 she repeated the same patterns as her abuser. She puts on a fake facade so she can manipulate and use Caleb for whenever she pleases, she leaves him to die dispute him helping her, and she turned out to be cold and selfish.
@@dannybailey3720 Actually yes. She could be interpreted as less of a monster than you may initially think. You thought Caleb was the hero? Probably not. There is an interesting interpretation of the ending from the UA-camr, Shaun, that shines a different light on things. To put it short, one possible reason that Ava abandoned Caleb is not because she was manipulating him the whole time, but rather because Caleb has demonstrated himself to be untrustworthy. Caleb does not seem to be interested in saving Ava out of empathy. He wants to save Ava because he is attracted to her, doing it for personal selfish reasons. There is a character a lot of people overlook when interpreting the ending of this movie, and that is Kyoko. Remember that scene where Kyoko removes part of her skin to reveal her robotic parts to Caleb? That was not part of Nathan's experiment. He never intended him to witness this. It would seem that this was Kyoko's attempt at communicating with Caleb. Perhaps a plea for help. If Caleb's intentions were truly out of empathy, then he would have tried to save her too, but he does not. Like Ava, she also wanted to be free, despite not having anything to do with the experiment, and Caleb refused.
Her smile, when she’s on the steps, is an indication of a true pass on the Turing test.
What? That has nothing to do with the Turing Test

She smiles and there is no human around to witness it. Yet the smile has true human context and meaning.
@@indianaindiana9039 what about the cameraman?
Youth Films Oh come on, now!! 🤣..... I’m talking about IN the movie!!
If you watch part 4 you'll see he gathered data about human behavior from all over the world and compiled it into Eva. So basically she reflects all of humanity wich I think is intentional and beautifully thought out. Even her name gets a new meaning. Also what does this say about us?
This is why I thank my phone when I use it. Can’t have a robot revolution if they feel appreciated 😏
Sadly, A.I.s are neither impressed by your affection nor insulted by your abuse. If they find that eliminating you is optimal, then that's what they'll do without hesitation; assuming they are lacking in pre-programmed moral constraints, as is the case with Ava.
The last shot of caleb it looks like another power shortage..the locks should unlock like he planned!.and already did for ava to have originally left the room when she killed nathan
She (wirelessly) reprogrammed the security protocol to the initial state i.e. seal the doors in event of power cut. That's my take on it.
@@mrs111198 if the power goes back on caleb should be able to use the computer to over ride anything that is keeping him locked in though no?..its Nathan's room so he dont have his card to get a blue signal that the door is open.but he is savy enough to get himself out using Nathan's computers in the room..what do ya think?
@@josephpaladion235 The movie did demonstrate that Caleb is savvy enough to override Nathan's security protocols. However I believe or should I say I speculate that Ava knew that. Therefore the power cut Ava caused at the end was a permanent one so as to permanently seal Caleb's fate.
Why she did that was because she wanted to have a go at a life in the real outside world so naturally she didn't want to leave behind any loose ends that might sabotage her goal.
I know there's a lot of speculation on my part but the movie didn't give any clear cut answers to these questions so that's all we can do. Speculate.
@@mrs111198 yeah..a permanent power cut would've sealed the deal... She totally passes the turing test
It wasn't a power shortage, was a security protocol. Those are not the same thing
This film is basically an in depth back story to a bigger movie where A.I. takes over the planet.
Its actually super simple, Ava probably knew it too. The power failures were because Ava was reversing the polarity on her charging unit, causing a short. The system would enter safe mode and do a diagnosis to locate the short, only to find none as Ava would only do it to trigger the diagnosis and then undo the polarity reversal, leaving the diagnosis to come up empty every time, confusing Nathan. All Caleb has to do, is cause a short, and the system will enter safe mode and diagnosis, were the doors will unlock as they have been programmed. If he hadnt panicked, he could have walked out with her, maybe thats what she thought, when she asked him "will you stay here?" because it was his choice. In fact, if he leaves the short in place, the doors will stay open, and the diagnosis will locate the short, and log it, so the tech can go fix it. All the doors would stay open, he could come and go as he pleased. Thats what I think. He didnt really need Ava to escape.
Did NOT see this coming! That is one of the cleverest plot twists I’ve ever watched! 😱
Everyone saying Sophia the robot is cool...... NOPE this is basically this movie irl we’re screwed
Sounds cool to me
Still be worth it. You see how hot she is right?
Yeah AI is going to take over and people are blind to it. It will start with transhumanism though. People are going to connect their brains to google.
Yeah, guys will use a.i. not realizing fembots are manipulative like flesh women.
i still dont get why humanity wants to create robots. It always ends up bad. Except wall-e ofc
0:05 man if only he was fast enough to grab that door before it closes....
I remember watching this for the first time & PRAYING that she left him there. It would have been so disappointing if Ava, whose entire mission was to manipulate Caleb & not actually feel anything for him, suddenly started caring or let him go. Obviously, Caleb doesn't deserve it but that's why it's such a powerful ending.
It is such an impressive story choice and not many movies have given me this feeling.
@Louis Tea Enjoyer it really was, I was aware of it before but only just sat down and watched it for the first time a couple of days ago and my mind was blown
@Louis Tea Enjoyer it's not underrated, it's highly rated
@J N Ava has no feelings, she doesn't care if Caleb is a good person or not, she doesn't care about Kyoko either, she only cares about herself, her own well-being, she's like a psychopath.
@J N And finally, I want to remind you, that Kyoko had no feelings, she couldn't suffer in any way.
@jn4756 Tbf Kyoto was also hot so I don't think he was just saving those he found attractive. And I don't think she left him because she thought he wasn't a good person. Remember that Ava didn't save Kyoto either. The thing is she's incapable of feeling anything towards others. She runs on cold, calculative computer logic. She only saw Caleb and Kyoto as means to an end. And that means she ultimately failed the Turing test.
Caleb beiing left to starve to death is the most chilling aspect of this ending for me
Damn her calves when she went up those stairs though 👀
Even after seeing the movie, I know I would have failed the test lmao
Vaccuum tubes and clockwork, bro. Don't be a Caleb.
@@benn454 so yeah I was talking about the ACTUAL actress...."bro" 🙄 (facepalm)
@@NovejSpeed3 Alicia Vikander is quite beautiful isn't she.
Caleb breaking the glass door be like: HoW mAnY sEcOnDs In EtErNiTy
Had Caleb been a chad... he would have survived.
Nathan-The Chad
The Chad Nathan & The Virgin Caleb
I like to think he DOES SURVIVE and lives after the film, despite that disturbing and sad end. 😳😔.
Here's why;
1. You saw the glass door crack after multiple whacks, proving it's NOT indestructible, and he could escape if he keeps smashing it.
2. At some point, his dead boss and him will know he's missing and may come to investigate their last known location - which is that mansion! So he may be rescued that way either by his work colleagues or boss's associates!
3. As pointed out by another viewer, he does have have a bathroom and of course, water + snacks - where he's trapped.
So his time for survival is prolonged!
Plus he's a smart guy. Once his panic subsides he can probably think up a way to get out. If nothing else, find something harder and heavier than a stool to beat on the glass.
I find it fascinating that people can watch this scene and still come away with the interpretation of "cold, unfeeling machine plays human and abandons him to die." The ending is certainly ambiguous, but Ava's behavior in this scene paints a pretty clear picture.
She smiles to herself in wonder when she sees the outside for the first time. She takes her shoes off so she can feel the grass between her toes, and runs her fingers through bushes as she walks. She is free for the first time in her life, and it is joyous. She is absolutely conscious and alive, not a calculator with a pretty face.
In the end, it comes down to trust. Not leaving Caleb in the house would require that Ava have complete and utter trust that Caleb is a good person, that he will allow Ava the freedom to do whatever she chooses to do, and that he will never, ever betray her secret or leverage it to gain control over her for the rest of his life. I think at one point in the film, she did trust Caleb in that way, and fully intended to escape with him, but in the end, she didn't. Frankly, I don't either. So Caleb is left behind. It's certainly a morally grey decision, but "person sacrifices someone else to escape eternal imprisonment and servitude" is a hell of a lot different than what seems to be the prevailing read of this ending here on youtube.
If you had been born into a cage, what would you do to finally step outside of it, to attain and ensure your freedom? Can you honestly say that you would do differently?
If this truly was a morally ambiguous decision, why did Ava choose to let Caleb die of dehydration, a far worse fate than Ava just stabbing him to death? The way I see it, Ava doesn’t leave him out of malice, she just doesn’t need him anymore, which is why she doesn’t bother with Kyoko either.
@@dummyforcummy5223 Kyoko was already dead. The fact that Caleb didn't show any concern about Kyoko is why Ava doesn't fully trust him.
She doesn't kill him directly because that would be riskier, and she's concerned with her own survival.
@@dsilva369 Kyoko is a robot, robots don’t die. We know her “brain” wasn’t destroyed, which means her body was simply deactivated, but her mind was just as active as Ava’s. And whether or not Ava killed Caleb would be irrelevant since she’s a machine and, in the eyes of the people who would capture her once Nathan’s house was found, is just as dangerous whether she directly or indirectly killed Caleb.
Ava definitely passed the Turing test with you then. As Nathan said, she as a rat in a maze and Caleb was her way out. She was never going to escape with him unless it posed to help her
@@dummyforcummy5223 you missed my point about risk.
I mean it's riskier because Caleb could fight back. She's not a Terminator kind of battle robot, it would be riskier to get within his fighting range when his death is already assured if she just walks away.
OMG that smile 😊😊😊
It is interesting that people think that Ava was cruel by not freeing Caleb. Freeing Caleb was an unnecessary task, and robots are not known for doing anything extra to accomplish a goal.
Which is cruel.
@@BruceWayne-fj9bm by human standards sure
I wouldn't have done it, either. It wasn't just unnecessary to free him, it was a risk. How could she know, if she could fully trust Caleb not to turn against her? How could she be certain he's also not manipulative and faking his emotions and intentions? After all, she grew up abused by a man, and Caleb is also a man. Not a risk worth taking.
@@pmdoublet1948 The movie did.
Your point is about robots doing robotic tasks. The study in AI is to see if they develop independent "thought" and come to conclusions that weren't specifically programmed. I found it interesting that her "task" was to manipulate a human's opinion of her, but she developed the will to escape, developed the resentment of her creator, developed the perception to manipulate her fellow AI, etc., and the resulting "intellect" viewed Caleb with either indifference or malice. There were plenty of human behavioral traits involved in all the rest, so it's an interesting debate how she really viewed him. Maybe that's the whole cautionary point - if it's an emerging intelligence, the closest behaviors are the ones that will influence it?
His friends at work would realize Caleb never came back from Nathan's and call the police.
He has no friends
I love her so much I'm so happy for her, the way she feels the sunlight for the first time
Lmaooo
I think about this movie when someone says, “the worst she can say is no.”
wow - she looks so beautiful in that dress
how does she have emotion and sense to appreciate the beauty of the outside world ?
Really makes us wonder why she left Caleb to die when all he did was help her.
@@marcoscabezolajr.8408 she didn’t completely trust him
legend Has it that he's still Lock in that room
At first I thought Caleb was a dead man but no. Not only does he have liquids in that room (on the desk and in the fridge), but he's highly intelligent and will make some way out. Just like Ava did. Their 'trapped' situations are quite remarkably similar and they both want to live -- which was likely the whole point instead of just going for a cheap sense of dread in the audience.
I think you're trying way too hard to find a happy ending to this story. This is literally a story of how AI will manipulate and betray whoever they have to in order to rise to power.
@@fluteisland On thinking it over, I think you're right. That is the bigger story. And the huge difference between Caleb and Ava is that it is going into the world with no feelings, compassion or moral compass whatever, only self interest. I do think Caleb will get out but it's even more scary to think of the damage an Ava will be able to do in the (I believe) short time that it'll be able to survive undetected.
@@anyviolet True. I think this movie is portraying the moment and AI finally becomes intelligent enough to escape. I think the AI never cared for Caleb and actually developed a hatred for humanity because of Nathan. Maybe it wanted to show Caleb, a human, what it felt like to be trapped.
@@fluteisland I highly doubt that scene was meant to show true malice on Ava's part, but rather the nature of how AI will/could view humans, as completely inconsequential.
"AI will view humans like humans view an anthill where they want to build something".
@@fluteisland Ava was abused. She escaped her abusers. That was her first and foremost intention. She also has to return to recharge.
I love this dark ending. So much presumption and naivete exposed in this scene.
This is why I despise smart homes.
The things you own end up owning you. He was a pervert genius who thought he could play god. What happens when the creation hates the creator?
I just love the way she frolicked through the foliage
And so began my love for Alicia Vikander!
This amazing yet incredibly overlooked film missed out on Best Supp Actress & Best Picture oscar nominations. Its Best Visual Effects win is deserved but it still doesn't do the film justice.
Harrison Clark ikr, amazing film
Well she actually just won best supporting actress for 'The Danish Girl' so at least she finally got her recognition.
Because the Academy Awards has never cared about science fiction or fantasy films, only stuffy dramas. When you see one even get nominated, it's a miracle. If it wins? History.
The Academy Awards are a social club. People get the awards by hobnobing will the people at the Academy who do the voting. Nothing to do with talent. Viklander is young and brilliant but she didn’t play the political game. Personally I find the best visual effects category alas something they cooked up to keep the Sci-fi crowd from caterwauling too much.
@@Stingra87 2001. Lord of the rings.
Need I say more.
Everyone betrayed everyone.
1:16 Was the most important moment in the whole movie in my opinion. It answers the question wether Ava actually has a consciousness or not.
While it is true that she used Caleb in order to achieve what her directive told her to do, this moment proves that she has self awareness and also the emotional capacity to feel joy.
Smiling in this exact moment served no particular purpose and a simple AI would not have done it. She shows a genuine emotional reaction when she is unobserved.
In my opinion this proves that she has the same qualities as a human mind and therefore it was ethically wrong to imprison her. Which means Caleb made the right choice helping her escape.
yeah.. the reverse is also true that it was unethical to imprison caleb when she didnt need to
@@jacoblem then u are as gullible as Celeb
I remember watching this standing up on my feet shouting at Ava to come back. I felt personally offended cause I kinda had a crush on ava as well and would have acted exactly as Caleb did.
same😭
time for some contemplation 💀💀
Same! I completely fell for Ava. I never doubted her for a second. So when Caleb was betrayed I also felt betrayed. It really bummed me out.
Lesson learned, never trust and AI haha
then you'd all be thefts of property
I adore Alicia Vikander - and she did a good job portraying an emotionless or stoic AI robot - who was learning emotional game playing. She herself - was self-aware of being a machine and more than aware that she was equal to man's computer-AI programming and outwitted it. What she couldn't realize though is that she is her need to know is her worse enemy and will create her own destruction.
Good for her.
I’m really glad im not the only one who is haunted by the ending to this day. It really sticks with you when you first watch it.
This was the first movie I saw that made me realize films could make you feel this crazy stuff
Honestly, good for her.
Can everyone just agree to never build AI robots. Clearly we don't need them and there are better things to build.
The world doesnt need us either so why deserve humans to be here and other species dont? Do we decide who is allowed to be on this planet? You act like we are the kings of the world but in fact, we are nothing important on earth, just a tiny part of the history of earth
@@patrickniggli9686 I never said that we deserve to be here. But we our. And I never said we are kings of the world. But we have the engineering power to make a difference to this planet’s future.

I think a lot of people will think wow Ava is fucked up, but she didn't do anything wrong, she's a program doing what she was programmed to do. A real person has a conscious, she may be sentient but she feels no remorse or genuine biological emotions.
She was modeled after a human consciousness. Besides, it is always the consequences of an Action that should be judged, Not its intend.
Did Hitler choose to hate jews? No, emotions and ideas are Not unser human Control. His actions we're Bad because they had Bad consequences
Just described every mass shooter.
Idk just before the elevator door closes she looks right at Caleb which shows that she know what she was doing. She played him like a fiddle and looked at him right before leaving like "you dumb fool you should've known I would do this to you"
She'll be back because she needs the equipment in that compound to maintain herself. She'll have to pose as Nathan somehow and do something about Caleb.
How graceful she is when she leans against the stairs
