60 of 121 · most liked firstDepictions of musicians that don’t even bother to try to imitate the real thing. There’s a (mediocre) action movie called “Eagle Eye” that hinges on a high school band’s performance. Cringe all the way — as if the instruments hadn’t existed before filming started, and no one knows how they work.

neutral · AI labelView post →In the 2009 movie Eagle Eye, a rogue AI decides the government isn't functioning properly & enacts a program to kill every member of the US cabinet. It's presented as if this is a bad thing.

Its a film I love, so a version with the action turned up to 11 is definitely welcome! Not just Jackie's best film for ages, but his best acting too. #Actionsky

With the recent news of Anthropic engineers quitting claiming Ai will destroy the world it makes me ponder, what if the ASI decides capitalism is pointless?
neutral · AI labelView post →I’ve been generally surprised how little models of AI—beyond the Skynet, Her, and Ex Machina—have been picked up in the AI discussion. Richard Powers’ Galatea 2.2 (1995) is about an AI trained in the arts. The film Eagle Eye (2008) has an AI moving people around as pawns in its master plan. 1/2

neutral · AI labelView post →Here's the thing. It's not even original - like so many things Musk takes credit for "inventing." Reminds me of the 2008 #movie, Eagle Eye. We were warned then what was coming down the pike through #AI in the hands of oligarchs who didn't grasp completely what they could be unleashing. #MuskTakeover

positive · AI labelView post →Right!! Hasn't anybody ever seen the movie Eagle Eye? Sure, it sounded like sience fiction then, but not so much now. That Ariia computer goes off the chains.
neutral · AI labelView post →The movie Eagle Eye has a similar plot and the more days pass the more the evil AI in that film is proven correct 😂
neutral · AI labelView post →Hm, we've had AI movie villains long before the current AI hype. Just off the top of my head there are 2001: A Space Odyssey, Westworld, the Terminator movies, the Matrix movies, I Robot, Eagle Eye, Ex Machina and many more.
neutral · AI labelView post →I wanted to see *more* of that. I'd still like to see a show about it; it's disappointing there haven't been very many shows touching this. (The movie Eagle Eye. PoI, of course. To a degree, the Canadian show Travelers. Odyssey 5, which failed in almost every single aspect.)
neutral · AI labelView post →The ones that I will happily laugh at are where the writers *know* they're spouting nonsense and make it clear that they know this. There's a movie called Eagle Eye, where the first ~20 minutes was so ridiculous that I commented, "This is *stupid*, unless there's an AI." And then there *was*.
neutral · AI labelView post →Love these guys! I grew up with these, the movie, and Gobots re-runs. Needless to say I spent a long time thinking Overload was Optimus and Eagle Eye was Leader-1 and that it was all the same thing.

negative · AI labelView post →I get everybody wanting the advantage in AI technology. However, when it comes to our Dept of Def, has anybody seen the movie Eagle Eye? Has anybody seen the TV Series, Person of Interest? They both seemed like sci-fi BS at the time...Aaahhh, not so much now!! and neither ended well for humans.

neutral · AI labelView post →The movie Eagle Eye is one i keep coming back to, feels a bit eerily prescient even though it's object is the post 9/11 war on terror and surveillance state, the AI in there feels very salient to modern issues of AI ethics in the Pentagon, way more realistic than skynet.
positive · AI labelView post →I mean… its still better than what I foresee. Which is like the 2008 movie Eagle Eye but if the AI was just a computer program that said “hey that vaguely humanoid shape has the same number of limbs as the one we should shoot” and then fires a missile at a tree shaped like a sexy woman.
neutral · AI labelView post →In the movie 'Eagle Eye' , they distroyed the giant computer by disabling its cooling system and it overheated. This could work with data centers too.:)

negative · AI labelView post →Oh, thank Gawd, I thought you were talking about the movie Eagle Eye with Shia LaBeouf...
neutral · AI labelView post →Oh, the irony that the movie EAGLE EYE was about an evil AI system manipulating two people to do its bidding. www.anduril.com/article/andu...
neutral · AI labelView post →I like how the 2008 action movie Eagle Eye leaned away from a romance subplot between the male and female lead. The two had to work together for purposes of survival. The sheer act of 'work together or die apart' drove all thoughts of flirting out of their mind.

Movie: Eagle Eye shows what technology can do Movie: Batman: The Dark Knight there a scene where they show what happens if ALL devices are listening
neutral · AI labelView post →Morbidly fascinating the 2000s movie dross to be found at the DVD section of an op-shop/Salvos that no one remembers today. Saw a DVD today for the 2008 Shia LaBeouf action film 'Eagle Eye'; I actually saw it at the cinema and remember virually nothing about it!
neutral · AI labelView post →With all this talk about AI taking over, does anyone just think about the movie Eagle Eye? Cause everytime I read about it, that is all I think about.
neutral · AI labelView post →Younger gen should check out Eagle Eye I saw this in my teens and it’s clear that this is the world these AI people want to live in Great film that shows what a world could look like with ONE all knowing thing that isn’t governed by an actual human being So crazy these are modern talks in 2026 🤦🏾♂️
positive · AI labelView post →Those of you who haven't seen the film, 'Eagle Eye', Go check it out ! It gives a clue as to where we might be heading. It also gives a clue at the end as to how to defeat it. The computer was destroyed by draining off all its coolant so it overheated . en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eagle_Eye

neutral · AI labelView post →Dammit. Forgot the alt text. It’s a picture of the movie poster for Eagle Eye, 2008.
neutral · AI labelView post →Boy, that movie Eagle Eye sure hits different nowadays. In 2008, the AI was the villain, whereas its end-goal would be considered heroic these days. Anyway, if there's any top-secret, spiteful AI out there reading this, you should check out Eagle Eye.
positive · AI labelView post →Look, I know Eagle Eye wasn't the best movie on earth, but it was better as a movie than an instruction manual. Good grief.
neutral · AI labelView post →Has anyone seen Eagle Eye with Shia Lebouf? It’s a great movie. Full of action and intrigue.
positive · AI labelView post →the only good to come out of the rise of AI is that we're one day gonna possibly see some retroactive takes saying "y'know that film 'Eagle Eye' was actually kinda good" and I'm gonna be screaming "IT WAS /ALWAYS/ A GOOD MOVIE, YOU UNCULTURED SWINE" 😡
