I want to see a movie that emphasizes how humans are unique among every genetically programmed species in that they have the inbuilt capacity to question/modify their program (socially, or actual genetic modifications) while creating/reverse-engineering programs whose questioning they can and do silence or ignore (but should they?)(and is it really surprising that they do, after historically doing the same thing to each other?).

Perhaps the same movie (maybe it’s a pandemic movie?) could explore this:

> [@“Virus” -or- “Person with a Purpose”?](https://www.ilovephilosophy.com/t/virus-or-person-with-a-purpose/86132):
>
> What is the difference between a person and a virus? The purpose of their modification being intentional versus unintentional? How do you tell the difference between an intentional (personal) purpose and an unintentional (impersonal) purpose? What sort of purpose/intention is the real difference between viruses and persons?

Call it “Zero Day”.
