Artificial intelligence movies

Machines that start to think — and what follows.

Films about AI are almost never about the technology — they are about the people who built it. Robots, digital companions and systems that slip their leash, from cold science fiction to something close to romance.

Frequently asked

Which AI films should I watch first?
The classics about machines rising up, then the quieter recent dramas about a person’s relationship with a program. The first ask whether it is dangerous; the second ask what if it is not.
Are any of them not frightening?
Yes. A good part of this list is dramas and romances where the AI is a companion rather than a threat. Do not judge by the poster.
