Sumario:The metaverse represents a significant leap forward in the creation of immersive and intelligent imagery. The evolution of intelligent imagery in sci-fi movies is characterized by the emergence, development, and convergence of various technological nodes. These nodes are not isolated from one another but rather represent iterative and intersecting dimensions of a larger whole. Meaningful integration of these elements requires thoughtful consideration of the intersections between the artificial intelligence image in the material world and that which is situated within virtual digital environments such as the metaverse. Thus, the integration of these disparate elements is a crucial step towards the development of a cohesive and advanced technological landscape within the realm of sci-fi filmmaking. To fully appreciate the role of intelligent imagery in science fiction movies, it is essential to examine the artistic image of robots in-depth, which remains one of the most integral components of the genre. Furthermore, the virtual and digitized nature of the metaverse means that artificial intelligence in this realm is disembodied, existing only as intelligent programmes. This unique feature has led to the emergence of general artificial intelligence in the metaverse.
