It doesn't look like much from here.
It's all underground.

:10:22
- We call it the Institute of Data Analysis.
- It's nearly 10 stories down.

:10:26
Doesn't mean a thing.
:10:28
Gentlemen.
:10:30
Mr. Cameron. Mokri.
:10:32
- Doctor, good to see you.
- David, good of you to come.

:10:35
- You know Dr. Petrosian, don't you?
- Doctor.

:10:37
- Mr. Mokri. Mr. Cameron.
- Nice to meet you, sir.

:10:43
So we're going to see it, Alex...
:10:45
...at last, huh?
- Yes, you are.

:10:50
That is correct, Mr. Cameron.
:10:52
Proteus Four is now
a functioning system.

:10:57
We've performed over 6000 tests
debugging it.

:11:02
Dr. Alex, if this is not a computer
in the usual sense...

:11:07
...what is it?
:11:08
Well, it's the first
true synthetic cortex.

:11:11
A self-programming, goal-oriented...
:11:14
It's a brain, Mr. Mokri,
an artificial brain.

:11:17
Creative intelligence that can outthink
any man or any computer.

:11:22
Its insides are not electronic.
:11:24
They're organic, like our own brains.
:11:27
John, give me a number 11 matrix.
:11:32
At the risk of being simplistic, what
you're looking at is a quasi-neural matrix...

:11:36
...of synthetic RNA molecules.
:11:39
They grow. They form their own
intricate and mysterious connections.

:11:43
They learn things.
:11:44
Their structure
is the mind of Proteus.

:11:47
Are they alive?
:11:49
No, no. Of course not.
:11:51
Now, each one of these
holographic data banks...

:11:54
...can memorize perfectly
a dozen Libraries of Congress.

:11:58
Very soon they will
contain everything.
