In fact, Sky was very complimentary and excited about the man who used her in the OpenAI demonstration. Daily program‘S Desi Lydic also noted: “This is clearly programmed to feed the guy’s ego,” she said on the late-night series last week. “You can really tell that one man created this technology.

All the way.”
The film ends with Samantha breaking up with the Phoenix character, telling him that the operating systems have learned all they can from humans and are starting a new non-human chapter.
Wired suggests revisiting could benefit all—if only “just make sure we’re all on the same page about the future we’re working towards.”
