![]() The day after a hundred heretics were burned at the stake, Christ once again appears on earth. The story of The Grand Inquisitor is set in sixteenth-century Seville, during the time of the Spanish Inquisition. Yet, the role the inquisitor plays – or more precisely, the idea of the Spanish Inquisition – is crucial to the film. They are more the stage on which the film was set. Although the title suggests otherwise, this film is not about the inquisition and its inquisitors. In this essay, I will discuss the short film The Grand Inquisitor that was made for the Open University and based on the chapter of the same name from Dostoevsky's book The Brothers Karamazov.

![]() ![]() I was taken aback, especially given Ray's proven ability to imagine and create the future. ![]() ![]() But now, from someone I respected, I was hearing a strong argument that they were a near-term possibility. While I had heard such talk before, I had always felt sentient robots were in the realm of science fiction. I had missed Ray's talk and the subsequent panel that Ray and John had been on, and they now picked right up where they'd left off, with Ray saying that the rate of improvement of technology was going to accelerate and that we were going to become robots or fuse with robots or something like that, and John countering that this couldn't happen, because the robots couldn't be conscious. While we were talking, Ray approached and a conversation began, the subject of which haunts me to this day. I was sitting with John Searle, a Berkeley philosopher who studies consciousness. Ray and I were both speakers at George Gilder's Telecosm conference, and I encountered him by chance in the bar of the hotel after both our sessions were over. I can date the onset of my unease to the day I met Ray Kurzweil, the deservedly famous inventor of the first reading machine for the blind and many other amazing things. ![]() From the moment I became involved in the creation of new technologies, their ethical dimensions have concerned me, but it was only in the autumn of 1998 that I became anxiously aware of how great are the dangers facing us in the 21st century. ![]() ![]() ![]() And he’s willing to break all the rules to do it.

For me, the creepiness was more gradual (think edging your way into chilly water slowly, bit by bit). Anyone who picks up the book dives straight into full-blown creepiness (think jumping cannonball style into an ice-cold swimming pool).
