Well made movie with great music, but I'm not sure I completely understand the point. The way I see it though is that it really isn't about the singularity at all. It's a part of the movie but what the meaning of the movie is that love is something that isn't exclusive between two people, but a feeling that can exist between many people. They play it that the OS has surpassed this human idea of love as it stands to most people and has reached a new sort of enlightenment of love or something. I think this is best explained with the quote from the OS about words in a sentence becoming more and more apart and she's hiding between the words. ( I forget the actually quote.)

But maybe I'm completely wrong and would like to know other interpretations. Maybe it really is just about singularity but I don't think that's the point of the movie at all.

Really great movie. I think it had a lot of interpretations/meanings. You could also say that the OS wasn't actually all that different from a regular person and the "singularity" was just another depiction of the communication breakdown in relationships that become stale in general.

It's a good movie. I enjoyed it. All I remember about it is a dude falling in love with an OS and that's about all I took from it.

it was meh when i saw it and deeply flawed in retrospect, though i haven't seen it in like five years

plot scruples aside, it was a terribly unrealistic depiction of what a singularity would look like, never mind far too conservative with respect to not-so-distant future ai capabilities
