Hey Tim, just wanted to say I love all your videos but can’t watch this until I watch this movie, but I felt the need to ask, have you watched Hilda on Netflix? It’s a wonderful cartoon and just from the first episode alone it makes me reminisce so much of Avatar: the Last Airbender, it’s a beautiful show and has an air of fantasy and mystery that I’ve only seen matched in one other cartoon series: ATLA. I think you might really love it and I’d love to hear what you have to say on it. Hope you read this!

8:41 The correct quote is ”I’m getting cabin fever”, and this is Joi’s programming subtly nudging K towards investing in an Emenator product to get her out of the apartment. This gives weight to one of the most interesting debates of the film, was it real love or merely programming?

I liked this a lot, but you skip over a couple of key scenes that undercut the feeling of Joi's realness. 1) Where she glitches out in the rain 2) When K finds the billboard, reminding him and the audience that she was just a product. This is the big one. Did she ever make a genuine choice? Or was she just following her programming? Can an AI genuinely experience the world, live, and emotions? Or are they just inputs and outputs? I think the film leaves these questions up in the air.

She was created as wish fulfilment software. "She will tell you everything you want to hear" tagline on billboard. She will do everything you want her to do. And she is personalized, as in general Joi can't give what you want cause she doesn't know. She did couple hollow cold reading passes from the billboard, but they where extremely hollow for K. Especialy at that point in story. So in the end Joi was never self aware nor free. And all the personality she had was K's. Joi was holographic manfestation of K's repressed desires. He could only become selfless once she was gone. But I apploud fillmakers choice not to make her villanous or maliciuous.

@@UberNoodle This also brings in difference of Tyrrell and Wallace. While artefice or authenticity are parameters, there is also a theme of the the Father. Tyrrell was rather benevolent to his "children" and seemed to plan for theyr eventual freedom (entire Rachel storyline from first and scond movie). Wallace has no such emotions, his creations are tools for his ambition and nothing else (and Joi is his 'child"). And he is trying to exert controll over his "step children" the replicants. And the third Father in the story is constantly tormented cause his mere egsistance is a thread to his child. And can interpret it as conflict of Creators and theyr role in the lifes of Created, You can interpret it as Sins Of the Father parable. What I don't think you should interpret though is that your past does not matter (Dr. Stelline was special precisely cause of her past, wasn't she?). Of cource its also shown that its not the only thing that matters also. In a way im thinking about Joi and her circumstances as reverse of what we saw with Replicants in the first movie. Original Replicants are bieng shown as "others" to as from the start of the movie, they are seen as dangerous and somewhat at odds with "humans". Yet by the end of the movie we along with Deckard change our view on them and see them as "More Human than Human" (as was promosed/forshadowed :)). Yet with Joi in second movie we see oposite of that, she is sweet and supportive thruoght all the movie, and it easy to think of her as friendly or good. But by the end (billboard scene) we see her as hollow. In a way I think Joi is externalization of its users Ego. And its also method of control (theme of Wallace). In a way this for me explains why Luv left K alive after destroying Joi. She knows what it is and what it represents. She thought that she might aswell killed him by destroying it. This also prompts extremely important character development from K to sacrifice himself to save Deckard one of the very few real biegs who aknowledged him as a person.

@@pofruin I think it's important to note that Joi on the billboard is not an AI but just an advertisement. Whoever passes by it sees the same loop programmed into the ad - she repeat the same things to anyone. K's Joi is a full AI with the ability to learn and adapt and, in a sense, to "grow". I don't think Joi on the billboard had this ability. According to Turing a true AI would be indistinguishable from a human. From what I read AI are meant to become self-aware - a phenomenon known as "singularity". With an exponential learning curve Joi would become "more human than human". I think that she truly believed that her feelings were genuine. That is what made her real.

@@lukefallon3622 We don't know whether Joi in the billboard was any different from Joi of K's in its nature. She might be, she might not. The key phraze though was when Billboard called K "Joe". That name meant for K alot, it was the title he gained when he learned about his "divine" lineage. Then in scene prior to Billboard scene Replicant resistence members shatter that illusion, by telling him the truth of who is realy 'woman born' replicant. From the story telling point this is lowest point for K, and when billboard Joi casualy tells the name Joe to him it can mean one of two things: either is carmic coincidence and it's reinforcing the messeges K's Joi was telling him or its casting in doubt everything prior Joi was telling by showing that Joe is not unique name but rather generic hardcoded name into Joi's programing that she assigns to theyr users to create artificial bond. The first interpretation is valid, but the rest of the scene undermines that interpretation (the cold flirtatious behaviuor of billboard Joi and the slogan of her product) , while second is reinforced by the rest of the scene. Honestly my interpretation is that we see Joi as good and supportive to K. The only thing she does that is not supportive to him is sending the escort girl away, but that can be rationalized as jelousy (such rationalization already requres predisposition that she is somewhat aware and can feel jelousy, rather complex emotion on its own right). This colors our evaluation of her as positive and we tend to assign aditional positive features, diefy if you will, because of that. Exactly oposite of treatment Replicants got in the original movie. And about the whole "true" AI. There is never claim that Joi is true AI. It is comercialy sold romantic support AI. That alone limits her severely, and freedom of choice is rather critical to the development of 'true' AI. She is shown with ability to learn, but so do KZreads profiling algorythms, and I realy hope those are not 'true' AI yet. By the way i dont disagree with central ideas posted i the video I just think the ideas would be much better explained by relationship of K and Deckard rather than Joi.

My favourite part to work on. ~ Tim

This video reminded me how precious and beautiful K and Joi's relationship is, no matter how artificial.

The argument was that if you have to find your essence post existance to be real is true with these characters too. A human is born to procreate and we find meaning far beyond that. K was built to retire replicants and discovered and found his essence in Joi and reuniting Decker with his daughter, things far beyond what he was designed for. Joi was built to give the owner anything they wanted and K wants to be real. Joi had to learn how to be real herself so she could teach him, to give herself agency beyond what her father company would want helping K escape from Wallace corp. Both are artificial intelligences that become real once they move beyond their programming and find a true essence post existance in each other.

Also the gun I feel the action and story in the newest Blade runner was better intergrated (I don't know if that's the right word) and understandable to a layman like me

Reminds me of Her, with Joaquin Phoenix and ScarJo

Joi's death made me cry. The whole K and Joi plot is relatable in so many ways. It wasnt the look but the way she treated him. Sure she was programmed to say the right things, but arent we all. When your significant other has a bad day you ask them to talk about it, sometimes you really dont want too but you do it anyway cause you know it will make them feel better. All couples do "fake" things like that but they arent fake we just do them cause we want to help. It's nice haveing someone like that around you, it's even nice doing things for them. And when it's gone life doesnt feel as bright and happy. You are just exsisting with not much meaning. Just like K most of us are "nobody" with no real purpose. So the best we can do is get a small slice of meaning through love or responsibility. No love for me right now so I guess I'll settle for responsibility

Through their amazing writing, breathtaking cinematography, camera work and such, these films really make me look at the world in an entirely different way. As an aspiring Writer, the films really show just how to make a deep, symbolic l, and philosophicial story that has been debated (and will probably still continue to be debated) for year now.

I wonder what you think the significance of the ‘giant Joi’ scene is? It highlights the fact that she’ll tell ‘Joe’ exactly what he wants to hear.

The scene to consider in tandem is Wallace trying to gaslight Deckard with the hypothesis that his and Raechal's whole lives were predestined, precise math in their programming, to which Deckard replies: "I know what's real." He chooses to believe in love because that's what he FELT with her. He then proceeds to reject the picture-perfect copy of Raechal (the equivalent of the billboard Joi) even when she's programmed to be the exact same in every way -- because it's not Her. Their love was one-time and unique, it happened. The same goes for K's own Joi and the billboard; she might've been a mere program, but his interactions with her and their experiences were unique. He felt real love and loss with her, they grew together and she dies. The billboard can never replace her, it's a reminder of his loss.

Fantastic analysis. Thank you for this.

the blade runner stories are quickly becoming my favorite sci fi / cyberpunk anthologies.they are up there with ghost in the shell Akira and altered carbon. until this video i couldn't really place why i felt so strongly about it. i really see it as a masterpiece in surrealist existentialism. it not only sets the stage for most if not all cyberpunk media but really questions the basis of what makes us human and askes the hard questions that make the genre so potent in todays world. thank you for this video it really opened my eyes to the things that i had consumed but not understood. you are a rare breed of creator in a vast sea of click bate and prepackages nostalgia

Phenomenal video essay, I love how years on I can watch multiple breakdowns of this movie from many content creators on youtube and their observations and what they gain from the movie varies so much but points back to a central theme of what is real.

I can't wait until we get to this point in technology... So I can witness the singularity

At 1:47 you can clearly see that joi’s name has an ampersand above the I and pink lights make the I less visible, it literally says Jo & Joi. This is a thing I haven’t seen covered. Jo being the short hand name for Janus, the god of beginnings and ends, passages, transcendence, change and I once read the God of Twins. When K studies the DNA he finds a pair of twins, but the girl is the one with the death certificate. When they discuss the birth over the bones, they mention how the child got stuck in the birth canal, the scalpel marks are discovered and inspected, then a Caesarian section is discussed. Then later the boys existence is passed off as necessary by the one eyed lady. This scene is interesting because after which you see K openly lie, a thing that someone in film even says its a good thing that’s not possible; i think this scene is the replicants patching software but also i think the one eyed lady is lying. When K goes to see the memory doctor which is also a replicant upgrade store, its stated that the doctor has been in quarantine since 8, its also either stated or implied that she knows who her parents are, that she’s rich (therefore never having been in a shitty slave labor orphanage), and though this is circumstantial evidence at best, human, not a replicant, and not the author/ creator of K’s memory which happened to a boy older than 8, and also authentic to him. Being a detective, it’s both natural and trained to jump to conclusions, however wrong conclusions still make arrests or close cases, with minute real evidence or false circumstantial evidence they convict those who are not guilty and let those that are go free. Given the circumstances and available evidence i could understand K making the wrong assessment, introducing deckard to the doctor, who then would set the matter straight, but the movie closes leaving the facts ambiguous as the original did. K had a sister. The one eyed lady lied, because she wasn’t at the birth and didn’t know there were twins, and frankly, needs the living replicant be capable of reproducing same as Wallace, the future of replicants depends on it, at least as far as both of their ideals and aspirations envision. However, her ideals are truly as dystopian or perhaps even more than Wallace’s, because they show an utter lack of empathy for the majority of replicants and all of humanity, as the ideals of any warmonger or revolutionary truly are (as the saying goes viva la revolution, or live the revolution, however no society can actually live in a constant state of revolution, because its a terminal state of change, where the old state of existence dies, and in society that includes a large percentage of actual lives) sociopathic, and revolution overwhelmingly violent. But that does bring us full circle back to the God of change, K as his avatar, is the only character in the movie that frees himself of both motive and agency, he doesn’t worry about a coming war, as he’s obviously been fighting one of identity, existentially for his entirety, leaving him with one desire, to make meaningful connection. All the made replicants aspiring to an impossibility, being more human than human, K being the character that ascends to actual humanity. Finally, this leads to a few thoughts. The heavy use of Shakespeare in both actual words and atmosphere, (literally quoting Macbeth and Othello) leave one to draw parallels, and with Endgame, blade runner 2049, is most like (my favorite and imo best) Shakespeare’s Hamlet. Does it even matter whether K or someone else is the Naturalent or is the perceived war to come a fabrication to be made by the minds of those that envision it, for all to suffer whether they participate or not? Is it not true that though you don’t live by the warriors way it can not still kill you? Is this always the truth for society, that when it fails it will just be being killing being for no more purpose than to fertilize the earth? Is slavery a fundamental necessity or a product of individual laziness combined with authoritative corruption? Do we enslave all of our children and creations?

beautiful. thanks for this incredible analysis of a film i already adored so much, makes me love it even more. :)

This adds a whole new layer to the movie, and also thanks for noting the relation between Sartre and the novie

This was excellent!

This film is the cinematic manifestation of Albert Camus Absurd man. K is the hero described in The Myth of Sisyphus. K is born to a dead world that doesn't want him, to lead a life that wounds him, loves a woman who doesn't exist, and then destroys all of it for the illusion of fate, which is in turn ripped from him, and coming to the acceptance of his complete lack of purpose, realizing his own absurdity, gives his life for the very lie which destroyed it.

But Joi never subverted her essence like K did. She was made to be everything K wanted and she always was. So she was not real in the sense she never grew past her programming unlike K who, even though he was not born, choose to violate the programing of both the police and the resistance.

This video is a MASTERPIECE! Worthy of the movie.

I loved the fact that I click on this video naturally assuming it's going to be all about K...but am delighted to discover Joi is the video's true focus!

This is a very cool video about blade runner

Cannot get why this video doesn't have way more views that it currently has. Love to question my takes on this incredible piece of cinema, even years after.

I'm lowkey obsessed with this movie. I love Denis Villeneuve him and Rodger Deakins makes a great team.

I'm pretty much obsessed with it as well. Not only because I feel it is the greatest sequel in history, but also because it simply has no comparison.

This was nice. Didn’t love the movie but this makes me wanna rethink that - if only because of this video I like the movie more now thx.

I love the look of rain over bleak metal. It'd be so cool to get some of the film photography as a poster
