The movie ex machina approaches intelligence as the ability to manipulate others. When you encounter people way more intelligent than you having contrary opinions from yours the best option is to remain silent or subject yourself to the whims of those with superior intellect trying to dissect you. Nobody wants to feel like a victim or a martyr or impostor. Better to be the fly on the wall.
