Quit looking for reality where it don't exist.

[@a.t.oliver1886]

Maybe we want her to be a Winner 🏆🎉, I do too 🤣👍🏿 just saying...

[@Stephon723]

I'm gonna go with the combination of a good Story and a pretty woman..

[@ReadyUpGo]

This is a stunner. My kids are in their forties and both successful and yet I sent them this straight away that they might know themselves fully, override doubts, and respect their deepest truths in all things. I wish I could say their father always has. The people who put this together have a bright future. We need them in our world. Bravo!

[@f.michaelbremer-cruz2708]

That was so poignant, powerful and moving. I've lost my brother, a best friend and a Grandmother (years before I was born) to suicide. Sharing because I know the longing that Mira had to save others from feeling this pain. We can't bring back the ones we've lost to this monster. But what we can do is share our pain in the hopes that it makes anyone considering suicide to realize that they matter--and even if they don't realize it, their deaths will leave a hole in the souls and hearts of people who love them. A wound that never heals and never vanishes; regardless of how much time has passed. I appreciated how Shalini Bathina brought that through I loved watching her negotiate for Smiley because she believed it could be a friend to help people who can't or won't ask for help. The empathy and emotions displayed in this performance were so touching that it shows how truly talented they are at their craft. Mira stuck with her AI friend and in the end, managed to get the funding necessary to make it real. Thanks so much for this, it was truly moving and so touching.

Wonderful story, excellent execution, and impeccable acting. The reveal mid-way through took me completely by surprise. Very well played. And very on point for the story. The programmer's arc wants me to know what happened to her friend. In just a couple minutes you created an empathetic and sympathetic character (Aristotle would be proud! :) ). I felt her emotional journey (as condensed as it was), and felt a real sense of catharsis at the conclusion. And... I love how, in a story about super-advanced AI, the story was about a young woman and her very human reaction to things. Keep up the good work, and thank you for this story.

[@BenniRocco36]

Her acting and this story was so intense, I was brought to happy tears. Very well done!

[@georgeemerson699]

Far best than most of this genre, really kept me engaged with growing tension. I like the uncertain ending.

[@enzavonmetatronics3109]

GET TO THE ORIGINAL CLIP DEAR .. that one where Sting acted as a young guy once 🤨

[@Crowley9393]

In the vast universe of science fiction cinema, there are short films that glow brightly like stars in a crowded constellation - "The Lie Game" is such a film. It is a film that showcases directorial prowess by Jyothi Kalyan Sura, who has previously sharpened his technical skills at DreamWorks Animation India, contributing to projects as illustrious as "How to Train Your Dragon 2". Sura's directorial hand in "The Lie Game" is as sure as a seasoned captain at the helm of a ship. In a scant 15 minutes, he succeeds in intertwining the cold logic of computer science with the deeply human experience of grappling with mental health. This is a film that balances on the fulcrum of today's zeitgeist, serving as a lens through which we examine our own relationship with technology and mental health. But the triumph of the film is not only in its timely subject matter - it's in the performances, too. Shalini Bathina, who plays the central character, is luminous. As a computer scientist navigating the labyrinthine world of technological innovation and funding, Bathina brings a poignancy to her performance that shines brightly. She shoulders the emotional crux of the film with grace, turning her character's personal journey into a universally relatable story. Providing a formidable balance to Bathina is Dileep Rao, who essays the role of the mentor. His performance, though subdued, is a masterclass in subtlety. Bathina and Rao share an electric on-screen dynamic, their performances melding together to create a narrative that is as riveting as it is touching. Despite being a short film, the production values of "The Lie Game" are top-notch. The quality of the visual effects, sound design, and overall production would rival many feature-length sci-fi films. With its wide distribution by Dust on KZbin and Shorts TV, "The Lie Game" represents an ambitious leap forward for the accessibility of high-quality short films. So, here we have it - "The Lie Game", a work of brevity and depth, deftly crafted by the talented Jyothi Kalyan Sura. Aided by stirring performances by Shalini Bathina and Dileep Rao, and bolstered by impeccable production values, it's a film that truly stands out. In its short run time, it creates a universe of emotions that's worth diving into. You'll be glad you did.

[@davidlist7507]

Very well said and I liked reading your deep thought-provoking analysis, Peace☮

[@yl0000]

Soon enough, detecting a lying AI will be the more urgent, and more difficult, task.

[@reivanen]

This is exceptional quality, DUST is amazing.

[@daviderwin4705]

This is almost not science fiction at this date. It would be wonderful if those working on AI were as ethical, or as human as her.

[@wordyblerd7723]

Indeed!

[@jsmythib]

A top quality production in every respect.

[@bobalicious2696]

Wow, that was wonderful. Like finding a needle in a haystack. Kept you guessing about the ending right up to the end. Very well done!

[@foobarbecue]

I remember this from a while back... doesn't seem like there's much new on Dust these days. I really wish they would make it clear when it's a re-run.

[@henrydickerson9776]

I've seen this before on this channel. It's a good one

[@0neIntangible]

Yeah, I remember seeing it too, being Flashback Friday and all... but I thought it might have had a different movie title than this one... "The Lie Game". *Edit: maybe "Psynapse"

[@BlackBagData]

Absolutely love this brilliant Dust short!

[@NoahNobody]

I loved how this converged AI, tech culture, and office politics. Well done.

[@SP-eo2jb]

So glad this appeared as choice for me to watch. It brought tears. Thank you for the bighearted passion it took to make this. Wish you luck

[@rudevalve]

Certified Gold!!!!!

[@brightshis]

This is beautiful and powerful

[@DaveKraft1]

Stunning, and sensitive. It's the world we're heading to -- if not already in. But this time, the score is: Humanity - 1, AI - ......... Thank you for this wonderful piece!

[@llchapman1234]

I wish these were close captioned

[@woodstoney]

Great short film showing how important it is to believe and follow one's dream!!

[@charlestaylor3195]

Wow, the evolution of man continues, however subtle it may be.

[@alanr8702]

I wish I could give this short a million thumbs up.

[@stirwoodcraft]

Welcome back, back in the day I was HrHatManS , mainly interested in bushcrafting, now I mainly carve spoons.

[@AcapulKero]

Great short!

[@_AvgWellInformedCitizen]

@James Baker %100 agree! Excellent effort here. I’m invested too. My synthesis: I believe they will hire her as freelancer AND fund her App. When the app goes vertical, they should invest into marketing her as a separate Brand and advertise her involvement for the Win-Win-Win.

[@wordyblerd7723]

This movie had so much heart. Loved it.

[@ieatcaribou7852]

I didn't understand the beginning at all, but I still enjoyed it.

[@deslomeslager]

Have seen it already. But was fun to watch it again, although I remembered it all.

[@WarlordMoA]

Sometimes you need more context from the person that has emotions to give you a perspective , and an app is just an extension but an example. Great story line for future psychology students.

[@randomdutchguy]

This was AWESOME!!! and also....when will smiley be available in the app store?

[@hateforall4012]

Fantastic story.... shes absolutely beautiful!!

[@matthewdenckla6567]

Really good on second viewing! Kudos!

[@hi.moriarty]

Touching.

[@f12mnb]

Terrific! Great job.

[@ARWest-bp4yb]

Well done!❤👍👍

[@tommclean7410]

Great writing. Great acting by the woman.

[@teamunicycle]

Please can Dust enable auto captioning on their videos?

[@believeinpeace]

Absolutely excellent acting and story! Thank you

[@Hyakman5408]

The only accolade I can think of at the moment is "Bravo!" And, though an inadequate praise for this work, it is nonetheless well-earned 😊

[@davidvaughn7752]

Excellent!

[@woolfwoolf]

Such a sweet story....maybe the future has potential to be better

[@michaelnelson5872]

I really liked it!!!

[@deba540]

[@MorganMghee]

I love this one SO much!!! 🎉

[@steverileyretired]

Very Good, enjoyed the video

[@Short-Cipher]

So good. So good.

[@Metaspace2]

A bit slow to build up suspense, it really caught me at the ~3:30 minute mark. Great short, kudos!!

[@durasaxon5131]

Captivating beauty Captivating actress I could just look at her all day and everyday and marvel. Holy Hannah 💗 (I've seen this film before.)

[@nova4005]

Aw, that was really good.

[@Mallory-Malkovich]

Humans will try every kind of technology to treat depression before addressing any of the things that make life depressing.

[@d0nj03]

Hmm, how is this not a flashback? I'm pretty sure I already saw this one a few years back.

[@richardmaier28]

Why am I thinking of Arthur C Clarkes Lt.Dutt and her UN issued phone in the Times Eye trilogy?

[@JamesFox1]

why are you repeating an old video ? dont get me wrong , its a good video , but if this is a reupload , you now have two instances ,of the same video , ever thought of running a live stream with all the older videos ?

[@lightcapmath2777]

This was more of personal drama / relationships then SIFI....my opinion. DVD:)

[@Apostlenetwork]

The future of chatGPT lol great short

[@mojumi]

I wish closed captioning was available!

[@okancanarslan3730]

nice film

[@tk000]

The flashback Fridays are on Saturday now?

[@fjdarling]

The best fiction helps us to find "reality" by confronting and exposing delusions (lies). We interpret the world around us to the best of our abilities. Usually it's incomplete or entirely wrong. It's one accomplishment to see through the lies others tell to us. Another, much more difficult reality comes when we can see through the lies we tell to ourselves.

[@terralail2844]

THIS WAS SOOO COOL--IF ONLY❤

[@faustocardy5018]

So this is another repost. I would like it better if they would list it as a Flashback or Throwback so I don't get too excited about a new Dust video

When you reupload, at least put that in the title. Such a waste of time, this channel has become unwatchable because of these reuploads disguised as new videos. Not sure if there are new videos anymore.
