Me too!

theres something about this scene that really stayed with me. i think out of the whole movie, it best illustrates the commentary on society and more specifically, humanity within the society, that they were trying to communicate with this movie. of course, literally, it speaks of the employer/employee relationship and the thin line between it and slavery but on a deeper level, it makes me think of the way your mind is effected by this. work = money = survival and therefore, work is the most important thing in life and therefore, pleasure and happiness is by relation, unimportant. when the mind accepts this model as reality, the rational mind (interviewer) becomes dominant, like a supervisor and endlessly monitors and tests the hedonist mind (officer K) to ensure it's still compliant and completely submissive. like taking a child away from his friends, sitting him in front of a piano and forcing him to be exceptional at it. it strips away the desire to seek pleasure, turning you not into a human, but a synthetic replica of what a human might be. externally indistinguishable from any other human but internally, without humanity. the relentless barrage of both heartfelt and dark questions and the speed and total disregard for their power and their value with which they are presented, i think perfectly manifests this concept as a real interaction that we can observe.

I mean no offense by this, but that is not something I'm interested in doing for love or money.

Sorry I can't help you. Be well.

Thank you for at least replying. The worst aspect about Kaczynski was him not being proven wrong so far with where tech is leading human civilization. Can’t really excuse his homicidal terrorism and his ideological goals still entail genocidal levels of mass death overthrowing the present state of the technological order. Only problem is tech may very well lead to human extinction by way of warfare and ecological collapse. Militaries are now developing AI to potentially kill while adopting “tactical” nuclear arms for drones. Geneticists are now hoping to fix our environmental ills with bio-engineering although there is every potential for unintended consequences. As for the Internet space we are interacting on... it is a given we live under a surveillance state. Like it or not, Kaczynski was prophetic. That said he actually sounds like Quentin Tarantino. Not the most appealing voice for an audio version of his manifesto 😏.

wilfried portha The questions are deliberately designed to provoke an emotional response. To "pass" the subject must repeat the key word immediately and without emotion, on top of the camera reading their subconscious reactions (eye movement, body language, etc.). If the subject falls off their "baseline" emotional status they're slated for termination.

You have to wonder if the decision to give replicants emotions was some kind of really dark humour...

@misombra

Yeah it's a little bit of goofy logic in the movies. It's like, *we need slave labor to help build colonies.* Great. We have that. They're called robots. The drone that lives in K's car is slave labor. Works fine, zero insurrections. *No, we need slave labor that can make decisions and solve problems and stuff.* Well, ok, smart robots with hands. Great. *Ok, but we need them to be indistinguishable from people.* What? Why? Unless they are secret agents, why not paint them all hazard orange with big stencils on their foreheads that say "AM ROBOT OK?" What benefit is gained from giving your subhuman slave labor machines boobs? Or hair? After K retires the protein farmer in the first scene, he goes home and his boss gives him a bonus. A bonus? Money? We're paying the toaster a bonus? Why did we program the toaster to need money? The bad guy industrialist man complains that he can't make his slave robots fast enough. Why not? If you have millions of people building colonies, who is going to live in the colonies? What are they going to do with their time? Is the goal to make it like Star Trek except the bottom of the ship is full of slave robots? I understand wanting to make a robot that is indistinguishable from a human just to see if it can be done. Nerds are doing that kind of stuff today. It's a classic engineering and programming puzzle that is interesting and exciting to solve. But why the crap would you need to build those advanced features into millions of digging robots that are going to live and die digging tunnels, fighting wars and terraforming moons? How would K's car drone have benefitted from a really sexy haircut? Or his car from having human skin?

Thing is, Replicants aren't /robots/. At least not in the classic sense. They're bio-robots. They bleed, they breathe, they are indistinguishable from people. They are completely organic. Assembled, yes, but still organic. The real question is, "Why the hell do we make genetically engineered humans which are better than humans in every way, instead of making slave robots?"

ForeverBatmanfunun1 Originally they designed the replicants (as you said, artificial but biological) to do manual labor too dangerous for regular humans. Their real purpose however was for combat, which Roy briefly talks about. Their achieving emotion & self awareness was entirely accidental. I don’t think they ever intended for it to happen. Now that they know they can’t have sophisticated replicants without emotion, they decide to do everything they can to keep them placated. It’s unsustainable but the hubris of Tyrell and Wallace is as big as their pyramids.

Rick James I saw the “Baseline Test” as a future version of the Voight-Kampff Test from the original film. Instead of using it to find out if someone is a replicant, they are using it to find out if the replicant is functioning at their full capacity, and not emotionally compromised. The subtitles when this scene starts says something like “Post-Traumatic Baseline Test”. They give their replicant officers this test every time they “retire” a replicant to see if the “retirement” they committed hasn’t messed up their brain.

One of the nuances in the movie that a lot of people seem to have missed is that it actually doesn't matter if K was faking or genuinely has no emotions when taking the test the first time. They don't care if replicants can feel; they only care if they're obedient and do their job. It's a stab towards the concept of professionalism in a corporate environment. It doesn't matter to a company what a manager feels when he fires 50 people or a police officer feels when beat up protesters; as long as they do what the system requires.
