Ex Machina is such a brilliant allegory about how social media companies (and tech in general) turn people into patsies by making them feel important with the most minimal effort possible 
Ex Machina is my favorite teen movie
It’s also interesting how they use an Allegory of the Cave metaphor to talk about quaila ... basically, doing the Turing Test successfully (to see if an AI is convincingly human) is like being able to see the color red or not. It’s ineffable, but it’s also palpably real
Can a robot tell a joke? Does it have that ineffable “it” thing that makes someone sentient? To see that is as fundamental as seeing color, because it’s a thing you almost can’t describe
