As robotics strides beyond isolated factory cells into dynamic real‑world environments—warehouses, hospitals, farms, and even our homes—the convergence of smart IoT, 5G connectivity, cloud computing, and artificial intelligence is unlocking unprecedented capabilities.
When Alex Proyas’s 2004 film adaptation of Isaac Asimov’s classic stories burst onto screens, it presented a near-future world in which humanoid robots—bound by the iconic Three Laws of Robotics—served humanity faithfully until a rogue artificial intelligence threatened to enslave it instead.
As artificial intelligence (AI) accelerates from research labs into everyday life, two blockbuster films—I, Robot (2004) and Iron Man (2008)—offer divergent visions of human–machine futures. While both present awe‑inspiring technology, their underlying assumptions about autonomy, power, ethics, and human roles set them on distinct trajectories.
