““The Social Network” was a movie about an asshole — “Artificial” is a movie about the antichrist.”
“We couldn’t leave it behind if we tried, and this, in his own way, is Guadagnino trying just as hard to do that as Sam Altman ever did.”
“Monica Barbaro’s oaken brown eyes, which lend OpenAI chief technology officer Mira Murati the patina of a moral code.”

“Garfield’s bulging arms.”
“There’s a tender heartbreak to Borisov’s performance, a loss of innocence which slowly gives way to a well-justified paranoia, but it’s a drag to watch Ilya catch up to the obvious about his CEO.”
“No, this dark comedy would never have survived the kind of sharpness that Sorkin wrote into “The Social Network,” but its general buffoonery makes it difficult for “Artificial” to wrangle important details into place when the time comes.”
“Andrew Garfield , who plays OpenAI CEO Sam Altman as a machiavellian queen bee with a penchant for upspeak and a frighteningly blasé attitude toward replacing mankind with computers (imagine an apocalyptic gay cross between Regina George and Agent Smith), has suggested that Guadagnino was exploring “how far we can take our obsession with not being human before we return to the body,” but this movie never strays far enough from the body to require a return.”

““Artificial” focuses its attention on these details as if it were training a neural network to create associations between them.”
“At least Mark Zuckerberg had the decency to be duplicitous, Altman is just openly consumed by the mania of trying to win the most important technological arms race since the atom bomb.”
“The real Sam Altman recently said that he believes we have to accept “bad things” happening with AI in exchange for the benefits of the technology.”
“At one point, in the midst of a broadly amusing scene that Fincher would have played for its propulsive sense of history in the making, Geoffrey turns to the camera and exclaims that “it feels like we’re in a movie!” “The Social Network” had to respect its characters because Aaron Sorkin is physically incapable of writing someone who couldn’t talk down to a giant, but “Artificial” has no such hangups.”

“Powered by WordPress.com VIP NYFF ‘Artificial’ Review: Luca Guadagnino’s Dark and Campy Tech Comedy Shows Just How Stupid the Road to Smarter AI Has Already Been Andrew Garfield is a diabolical villain as techno-nihilist Sam Altman in the sequel "The Social Network" deserves.”
“When presented with the idea that a financially incentivized ChatGPT model might encourage young people to kill themselves, Altman deadpans: “I didn’t invent teen suicide.” Later, during an appropriately eerie climactic moment in which the pseudo-Satanic tech exec is trying to sell his dream of shepherding in the next phase of life on Earth, all he can muster is a self-satisfied “It’s gonna be awesome.” It’s enough to make you want to reach through the screen and strangle him with both hands.”
“History repeats itself, first as tragedy, second as farce — or in this case, as an uncanny sort of San Francisco camp.”
“Today, now that Silicon Valley’s nerd Prometheis have graduated from getting revenge on Rooney Mara to threatening the future of the human race, the kids are back for a more existential lament.”
“Less than two decades after that, another Peter Thiel-funded sociopath bet our species on transcending the limits of humanity, only to prove that we can’t help but encode it into everything we create.”
“It’s the same old story all over again, albeit presented here at the scale that computer scientist Ilya Sutskever (“Anora” breakout Yura Borisov) spent most of his career desperate for the data to achieve.”
“Borasov’s patchy hair, already receding into lines of code when the movie first introduces Sutskever at the age of 17.”
