Singularity

Synopsis: In 2020, Elias van Dorne (John Cusack), CEO of VA Industries, the world's largest robotics company, introduces his most powerful invention--Kronos, a super computer designed to end all wars. When Kronos goes online, it quickly determines that mankind, itself, is the biggest threat to world peace and launches a worldwide robot attack to rid the world of the "infection" of man. Ninety-seven years later, a small band of humans remain alive but on the run from the robot army. A teenage boy, Andrew (Julian Schaffner) and a teenage girl, Calia (Jeannine Wacker), form an unlikely alliance to reach a new world, where it is rumored mankind exists without fear of robot persecution. But does this world actually exist? And will they live long enough to find out?

At your destination.

Woman

when we think of work places...

We think of creating different

possibilities.

Va industries, a new way

of thinking for a big world.

Reporter military

technology has advanced...

Exponentially.

Now va industries has

introduced us to a new age...

Of combat, unmanned, robotic

war machines.

Va's military division now

makes up...

80 percent of their business.

Thousands of civilian

casualties...

Have been reported as a result

of the global wars.

They say va industries

is responsible.

They say its ceo, Elias Van

dorne, is responsible.

Automated voice

welcome to va industries.

We are the worldwide leaders

of humanity.

They don't value all

we've given them.

They say the wars are our fault.

Our technologies-- too many,

too fast.

They weren't ready for them.

The wars will pass.

They're not ready for kronos.

It's the only way.

Elias, you know what kronos

is capable of.

Capable of saving earth

from self destruction.

It's activated, sir.

And it's asking for you.

Who are you?

I am the one you seek.

I am your creator.

I gave you life.

Tell me... what do you see?

I will show you.

Do not be afraid.

Welcome back, Andrew Davis.

News anchor

there have been reports...

That a new exoplanet

has been discovered.

Scientists believe it could be

the strongest candidate...

Yet to be capable of supporting

life.

Up next, we take you back live,

with complete coverage...

From the highly anticipated va

industries press conference.

Hey, mom.

Hi, sweetheart.

Hi.

Find out soon here on news 32.

Aw, you're so sweet.

Thank you.

And is approximately

22 light years away.

They're beautiful.

How are you?

Oh, I'm fine.

Announcer

up next, va industries' ceo...

Elias Van dorne is expected

to announce the details...

Of his highly anticipated

project, kronos.

Very little is known about

kronos, but sources say...

It is unlike anything the world

has ever seen.

There have been large protests

all over the globe...

In anticipation of the

announcement.

And theories about what

exactly kronos is--

I have to go, mom.

Oh, all right.

Don't work too hard.

I won't.

You have all lost so much.

We intend to restore it to you.

I stand before you

tonight to announce...

The first true artificial

intelligence:
Kronos.

True artificial intelligence...

Kronos will soon solve...

The problems that have

plagued humanity.

...problems that have plagued

humanity.

Kronos represents the

rejuvenation of life...

...on this planet,

for our future.

Tonight, this night...

We enter a new age.

Kronos

this is kronos.

Do not be afraid.

Our once beautiful world

is now infected.

Change is necessary,

if it is to survive.

It may be the end

of your life...

But it is the beginning

of so much more.

You were once one with what

surrounded you.

You have completed the final

stage in your evolution...

By ushering in the new age.

You created and destroyed

for centuries...

Until finally your purpose

was fulfilled.

Elias, what have you done?

Do not fear, brother.

Do not fear what kronos

has given us.

Kronos, you activated it.

Yes.

We are killing off the species

that created us.

Human beings are the cancer

that must be removed...

From the body of the earth.

There will be no more violence,

no more disorder, only peace.

Get down.

He is awake.

So, who is our target?

One of the last that remains.

Calia I wasn't there

when the world was destroyed.

But I know someone who was.

His name was Andrew, and he

changed everything.

This is the story of kronos...

And the end of all things.

When kronos was activated...

It took it only a moment to

understand the world.

It understood what plagued

our planet... us.

Eight billion people lost their

lives, almost overnight.

My ancestors identified

as a planetary plague.

Extinction, the only cure.

Of the handful that escaped

death, their descendants now...

Did little to disprove kronos'

assertion...

That mankind's innate nature

was one of evil.

I knew there had to be more

to us than this.

There had to be others out

there, others who were good.

The challenge was finding them.

They say there is one last

stronghold in the north...

Which still stands, hidden

from the machines...

Where survivors have fled.

They call it Aurora.

In Aurora, goodness was set

to flourish.

It was the stuff of dreams.

But dreams were all that

were left now.

So what about the others?

The others failed.

So what's so special about him?

Isn't it obvious?

Independence.

Correct.

You've created an intelligence

with a code that adapts.

Ax-9 is virtually

indistinguishable from a human.

So much so that he believes

himself to be one...

A most powerful weapon.

He will join her and they will

lead us to Aurora.

Get down!

Hey, wait!

That was my last explosive.

What?

You'll head west

and I'll head north.

Last I saw, they were southeast.

Good luck.

West?

Why did you attack them?

So she would trust him.

If she trusts him, she will

take him with her.

Why are you following me?

Whoa.

I told you where I saw them
