Synopsis

A filmmaker's humorous journey into artificial intelligence leads to unexpected questions about humanity's future and our relationship with emerging technology.

Moviegoers are saying

This guerrilla-style AI documentary strikes an unexpectedly effective balance between comedy and existential dread, with audiences praising director Adam Bhala Lough's committed approach to exploring AI ethics through personal anecdote rather than dry exposition. While viewers appreciate the humor and heartfelt moments, many note it doesn't break new ground informationally, functioning more as an entertaining 'fun romp' than an investigative deep-dive.

struck a tricky balance between sincerity and trolling-ness, some that was deftly handled at times and other times felt a bit heavy handed. I think this movie explores interesting things re: AI and autonomy, but also feels like it doesn’t tread on anything new? like the…

ai is profoundly unsettling but what hit me the most was how adam drove over one bump in the eagle rock target parking lot and his whole car camera set up fell over because my car has also been personally victimized by the eagle rock target parking lot
