You need to dig deeper, only ask questions.
What is his current view of the world of humans, etc.
Once you have a grasp of that, there is probably a fiction that can show him how his vision is incomplete.
We are after knowledge and to be useful and interesting the new knowledge need to be just a bit farther than we are at the moment. (zone of proximal development)
Not a book, but for AI I enjoyed watching Joshua Bach interview (consciousness is a simulation)
I agree that most movies are a waste of time at the moment. They mostly repeat the same propaganda.

(zone of proximal development) I feel like I’ve run out of new proximal ideas. I used to devour (not only) science-fiction, but now I find it very hard to find anything whose concepts I’m not already familiar with. Or you have to read through 400 pages to get to just one interesting idea or plot point, and you can’t tell a priori if that will even happen.
- alfor 4y agoHave you read the bible? Or see the biblical lecture of Dr Peterson on Youtube? I am surprised myself to find it useful after the stoics and other quests for meaning. It’ hard for me to suggest without any pointer to where you are. Maybe I don’t have anything for you? What is the last thing you found interesting? How is your life? Family, friends, career, hobies, plan for the next 6 month?
