Unbreakable (film)

Prophet IV was the latest neurotronic computer built for the Chinesse Government in 2036 by IBM. This amazing, gigantic computer tought with artificial neurons, had the most encyclopedic-scientific-cultural-economical-medial-military-everthing-you can-ask-for database backed-up on quantum memory, was feed by hundred years lasting plutonium battery, and was cased in an anti-bomb bunker that could resist radiation, extreme heat,cold or pressure, or any chimical attack. It was vitually unbreakable, forever autonomous, and terribly sharp. At the time, they where so confident about its military grade casing, that it was left unprotected in its building, with no gards or alarm system whatsoever. Its intelligence was so sharp that it soon became not only a military tool, but also a political adviser for the Party. After a decade of great performance in helping the Chinesse government conduct its political strategies with succes, Prophet IV became a real star among a large group of fans and admirers all around the world. In 2078, this artificial brain 40 years old became the most influencal person in the world, and its initial designer, the AI expert Boris Karloff Navralovitch, received the Noble price the year before, at the age of 103, for his extraodinary contribution to artificial intelligence and the evolution of mankind and science. Prophet could answer to almost any question with always the best answers anyone could think of. It could resolve the most complexe mathematical chalenge, invent the most powerfull cure for a desease, or propose the best advice for any political or economical conflict. It could create music, write original poetry, or create the scenario for the next blockbuster. If could decode any ancien scripts or password encription in less than a hour, talk 2000 dialects as if it was a real human or predict the next major earthquake on the planet. Such a complexe computer was always custom-built and rarelly there was two identicall version of the same model for security and complexity reasons. Also, because of the biological origin of this neurotronic computer and thus the more random and organic organization of its intelligence, IBM never succeded in reproducing the creativity and the deepness of this very precise model they sold to the Chinesse in 2036, and even after 50 years of expensive attemps by different nations around the globe to reproduce the Prophet IV intelligence, people began to think it as a pure technological miracle, and by 2093 the World Peace Organization declared Prophet IV the public property of all mankind, and IBM and the Chinesse government aaccepted to tansfered it from Shangai to Geneva in the Bulderdin Cathedral for everyone to see it and adore it. By 2100, it was annually visited by 300 millions of beleavers, and was microwave and optically linked to 78 dedicated satellites, 48 00 servers and 272 agencies arround the world to answer the more than 2 millions questions the human race would ask it. Things got nasty when, in an heavelly broadcasted public allocution, Phophet was asked some important international and philosphical questions, and one of them was: "Does God exists ?". It took many hours to answer this one question, where it takes usually less than a minute to answer even the most difficult one, and a fraction of a billionth of a second for the easiest ones. Eveyones was amaze and the whole world would suspend its breath for Prohet IV to answer this very controversial question. After 2hrs and 59 mins, the dramatic answer came, on the screen only: "I'am god". It was then tought by many that this was right, and that this bio-electro-orgamism with a unique history and an amazing evolving neuro-design was in fact the next Christ, and was officially baptised and sanctified by the Pope Claudio 1er on the 12 october 2105. However, another large group of the population thought differently, and they said it was part of a conspiracy to influence the world destiny and people's minds. There even was an attack with an atomic magnetic bomb to destroy it in 2106, and even if the whole cathedral was totaly flatened, Prophet IV was not even scratched and was roaring and transmiting like usual in the midts of the debris and the dust, like it had been doing for the last 70 years.
