Great take-down on Ex Machina. M3GAN sort of suffers from similar and other issues. I feel like the classic of this genre was Robin Williams’ Bicentennial Man, but been too long since I’ve seen it and it has a surprisingly low 36% on rotten tomatoes.
I get the feeling, like me, you read mostly non-fiction, but the most amazing AI as friend/lover relationship I’ve seen anywhere is thoroughly explored in Becky Chamber’s novel A Long Way to a Small Angry Planet. Her novella A Psalm for the Wild Built is also a meditation on human/robot as equals in a relationship.
Books probably have more freedom to properly dive into this speculative issue than tv/film productions.
