If you do like the Cyberpunk subgenre of scifi, I can also highly recommend the movie Upgrade. It's an Australian production and the ending hit me like a freight train.

Made a film post about your excellent recommendation: https://hackertalks.com/post/4230075

Wow that ending.

Real Colossus: The Forbin Project vibes! I love the gentle AI apocalypse, but i love out the AI is trying to protect itself from competition first!

Small nit, STEM was in the neck, so being able to see, or hear, or control what the brain can see and hear... wrong place for the routing.

...it's a love letter to fans of the original series yet remains practically ignored by the lurker's guide...

Don't feel bad, literally only released a year ago.
