On its own though, &#8220;Dr. Easy&#8221; is a wonderful and stark look at the future and out absolute dependence on technology and how it will do the work for human beings.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:left;\"><!--more-->When &#8220;Dr. Easy&#8221; cuts to the closing credits, you&#8217;re left wondering how great the success rate is for this program and how many people the authorities have hurt more than saved. &#8220;Dr. Easy&#8221; is an anthropomorphic robot capable of entering in to high risk crime situations, and is so advanced it can read the emotions on individuals. It doesn&#8217;t do this by reading faces or bodily gestures, but by heat signatures and blood pressure. The Dr. Easy robot is a psychologist, a negotiator, and a medical robot.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:left;\">She&#8217;s the quick fix, the whole package, the Swiss army knife that allows authorities to stay back and safe. However, once the human contact and affection is lost, Dr. Easy becomes a very difficult negotiator. When confronted with an army man in a building Dr. Easy attempts to patch him up and talk him in to going with the bot to authorities to work out his issues. Expressed with a monotone series of declarations make its use incredibly ineffective, as it&#8217;s capable of knowing what the man wants, but finds it impossible to relate to the man on a human level.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:left;\">&#8220;Dr. Easy&#8221; is a unique and insightful glimpse at law enforcement and how machines with human glares will soon replace actual humans and connections between beings. What the final shot indicates is anyone&#8217;s guess, but my interpretation is that once this operation has failed with a horrible casualty, authorities will begin building a newer and more human model that may just be able to form genuine emotion with many problems down the line. I look forward to seeing how Shynola and co. work this short in to a feature.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Shynola directs &#8220;Dr. Easy&#8221; in hopes of fueling a feature length film in the future, so &#8220;Dr. Easy&#8221; in its ten minute length is described as a prologue to the bigger narrative.
