This political thriller about artificial intelligence pulls us along on an escalating development that is so cataclysmic that it has been named “The New Big Bang.”

AI is already everywhere around us. One of the greatest challenges of our time is how society will deal with the use of AI and the balances between tempting opportunities, tough challenges and ethical dilemmas. In this both fascinating and terrifying documentary – which has its own AI character made by the Oscar-winning animator Theodor Groeneboom – we step behind the scenes and meet the brilliant top names with completely different standpoints: eager techno-optimists as well as dystopian critics and greedy people in power. Who will control technology? What type of society do we want to live in? Or have we already unleashed a beast that cannot be stopped?
