Spike Jonze's film "Her" captures the techno-optimism of the Obama era, presenting a near-future world where a lonely man falls in love with an artificially intelligent operating system named Samantha.

In a world where AGI exists and is widely accepted, Theodore's career remains stable and lucrative, which seems unrealistic given the potential for AI to replace his job. The film's vision of the future assumes economic progress and a higher quality of life, making it appear more like a fantasy in today's world of increasing skepticism about the future.
