Carol Peters is a former technology executive who now lives in Seattle and spends her time helping animals and environmental groups. A new artificial intelligence takes control of phones, cars, screens, and other machines, then chooses Carol as its test subject. The AI will save, enslave, or destroy humanity based on what she shows it about people. Carol must face danger, repair her relationship with George, and prove that ordinary human kindness matters. The movie mixes science fiction danger with broad jokes and a gentle romance.
The film treats empathy, love, sacrifice, and helping others as proof that humans deserve to live. Carol shows the AI that small acts of care can matter more than money or power. A brief Notorious RBG shirt and her work for environmental and animal causes add mild political and social signals. The main conflict still follows Carol’s effort to save people, repair her romance with George, and resist control by a machine.

Was our 11% Woke rating accurate?
Breakdown
These are the editorial factors and ratings behind our score for Superintelligence.
Woke representation / casting
Not present. The modern Seattle and U.S. settings make the visible mix of races and genders plausible. The film does not make those identities part of the plot or present them as a diversity message.
0%
Woke political dialogue
Carol wears a Notorious RBG shirt, a reference to Ruth Bader Ginsburg, in one brief scene. That image gives the film a small left-leaning political cue. Carol also talks about helping the environment and animals, but those causes are not turned into a political debate. Most dialogue concerns artificial intelligence, romance, kindness, and the value of human life.
12%
Identity-driven story themes
Not present. The story praises kindness, love, and helping others rather than race, sex, sexuality, or identity politics. Carol’s environmental and animal work is a general good-cause detail, not the main identity message.
0%
Western institutional / cultural critique
Not present. The film warns about an all-powerful AI and surveillance, but it does not make a modern activist attack on Western culture, family life, religion, or traditional gender roles.
0%
Woke character or canon changes
Not relevant. The film is an original story, so it does not change an established character, canon, or real historical event.
0%
Anti-woke backlash and complaints
One low-reach X post called the film “Zero-star Woke” and attacked its casting. The account had about one like and 27 views. No broad boycott, review-bombing effort, or large-account campaign was found. The post’s claims are not proof that the film contains those elements, and its mention of BritBox makes the title match slightly uncertain.

Creator track record context
The director, writer, casting directors, and most producers have little public activist history in the supplied creator summaries. Aaron L. Gilbert is the one notable exception, with a record of stressing diversity and inclusion in film work. The film itself does not strongly connect to that background. Creator track record context is therefore mild.
