'''Transcendence''' is a 2014 dystopian [[Postcyberpunk|post-cyberpunk]] [[Science fantasy|science fiction]] action/drama/thriller movie starring Johnny Depp with [[AI|artificial intelligence]] and [[mind uploading]] as its central themes.

== Plot ==

Will Caster is a renowned and successful artificial intelligence scientist with a high-profile public presence and agenda. His endeavours earned him fame as well as unwanted attention from an [[Anarcho-primitivism|anti-technology]] [[Neo-Luddism|movement]] called R.I.F.T., which is led by a person named Bree, who believes Caster's technology will do extremely more harm than good.

His need to complete his technology is advanced when the acts of terrorist would-be assassins lead him to the brink of death. The only thing left for him to do to save his life—or, at least his consciousness—is to merge with his AI and '[[mind uploading|transcend]]' before he dies.

Caster must also later battle with government forces who want to stop him.
