Stealth Review

After the show, when i was in my Wira, I was thinking how good it would be if my Wira can perform just like EDI, or at least let it talks! But it's just another fiction flick about the future of military, the digital warfare, this movie somehow brought up few points:
1) All the US Navy personals about to get replaced by computers!
2) Eat your heart out Osama, you got to learn how to hack a labtop/computer/server/mainframe, play CS instead of planting a bomb in near future.
3) Electronic divices will get smarter after these equipments are struck by lightings, just like Fantastic 4 where the heros gained their superpower after being exposed to radioactive-I-dunno-what.

In the beginning of the show, three supercool fighter jets vrooming across the air, shoot missiles to some trainning targets which hide inside a manhole.
These flying machines are simply superb, fast and furious! The pilots would be:

These are the selected pilots out from 4000 applicants (the movie said so, so we take it.) Trained to fight terrorism and blow these bad guys straight to the sky.

Manned iron birdies in action... Boom!

Soon, they found out that they will be having a new wingman without knowing the newbie actually is a supercomputer riding on a stealth aircraft.
Now, the movie is about my favourite subjects during my university days - Neural Network and AI, Artificial Intelligent. A system/network that is so smart that it can pick up knowledge during it processing. A smart to the max technology yet scary. EDI (Extreme Deep Intruder) is a UCAV, Unmanned Combat Air Vehicle using this technology, is on its field trip to learn from mortal pilots, get struck by lightings, download ALL the mp3 on the Internet, start to disobey orders and get emotionally (now that's freaky.)
