WALL*E:

An interaction analysis between man and his environments

There are many reasons to why man needs artificial intelligence. In this particular movie called WALLE, there happens to be concrete evidence to substantiate the need and claim for artificial intelligent interaction. Man and his artificial intelligent interaction are keys for human life. Man needs machines in order to survive, thrive and enjoy life. Two immediate interactions that are between man and machine are as follows.

The number one interaction in this movie is, man's home. Man's home is the spaceship, the Axiom. Without the spaceship, man would cease to exist. This spaceship in fact seems to represent their artificial earth, their very own world, a home away from home that becomes them. This spaceship represents the mother of interactions. For example, this spaceship life support and artificial earth has oxygen, gravity, sunlight, perfect temperatures, vegetation and so on and so forth. The spaceship totally causes utter dependence. It is and has been capable of sustaining life for over seven hundred years. All other interactions follow suit.

The second major interaction between man and A.I. would be the robots. These personal cold steel beings with no heart and soul cause a severe dependence on the human race. Man does nothing on his own. Man sleeps on a robotic bed that conforms to his personal sleeping comforts. Man never has to leave the ease of his bed / chair to get a haircut, facial shave, play golf, watch TV and brush his teeth. Man just sits back and takes it easy allowing the gentle touch of cold robotic love to alleviate his cares.

Here is some insight into why the humans had to board the Axiom, and why they left earth.

WALLE, short for Waste-Allocation-Load-Lifter-Earth Class, is a specialized robot created and designed to clean up the Earth. Man in all his depravity have polluted the earth beyond human livable means causing man to build a spaceship called the Axiom, that would eventually accommodate the remaining human survivors from earth sending them into outer space away from the uninhabited earth. This later becomes the fall and our inevitable demise in our human independence and existence from social interaction with each other. Due to human carelessness and non-preventative measures, earth as we knew it ceased to exist and live.

Earth, which has been abandoned now for approximately seven hundred years, is destined to be discovered through vegetation investigation. If vegetation
