Academy Award-winning filmmaker Daniel Roher (Navalny) approaches this personal, visually inventive documentary as a father-to-be trying to figure out what is happening with all this AI insanity. Produced by Daniel Kwan (Everything Everywhere All at Once), co-directed by genius animator Charlie Tyrell and premiering at Sundance, this eye-opening film brings together the leading voices shaping and challenging the rise of AI. What emerges is an inspiring call to attention: a real-time exploration of the existential dangers and extraordinary promise of this rapidly rising technology.

Post screening panel discussion will include: Dan Rockmore, Neukom Director; Susan Brison, Director of the Wright Center for the study of Computation and Just Communities & Professor of Philosophy; Roopika Risam, Chair of Film and Media Studies; David Kraemer, Chair of the Cognitive Science Program; and Thaila Wheatley, Lincoln Filene Professor in Human Relations
