Description:
What if the real story of artificial intelligence is not about dazzling new machines, but about the old systems of power and exploitation that shaped them? In director Valerie Veatch’s provocative documentary, historians, critics, and researchers trace AI back through labour, ideology, and pseudoscience, turning a hot-button contemporary subject into a sharp, unsettling inquiry into who built these tools and what they were built to do.
"A wake-up call inside a searing analysis of power, technology, capitalism, its dangers to the environment, and how the uber elite view democracy." Lois Vossen in Deadline.
