SUMMARY:The AI Doc: Or How I Became an Apocaloptimist
DESCRIPTION:From the Academy Award®-winning filmmakers behind Everything Everywhere All at Once and Navalny comes a timely\, thought-provoking look at the rapidly changing world of artificial intelligence. \nAs AI transforms the way we work\, communicate\, create\, and understand the world\, one father-to-be sets out to answer a big question: What exactly is happening with all this AI insanity? \nThe AI Doc: Or How I Became an Apocaloptimist follows his personal journey into one of the most powerful technologies humanity has ever created. Along the way\, he speaks with leading thinkers\, innovators\, and experts. He explores the incredible possibilities AI could unlock. At the same time\, he confronts the risks that come with moving too fast. \nCan AI help solve some of humanity’s greatest challenges? Or are we building something we may struggle to control? And what kind of future are we creating for the next generation? \nHand-made\, curious\, and eye-opening\, The AI Doc makes a complicated topic feel personal and accessible. It cuts through the hype and fear to explore what AI can really do\, where it may be headed\, and why the choices we make now matter. \nThoughtful\, funny\, and deeply human\, the film invites audiences to look beyond simple optimism or doom. Instead\, it asks us to consider what’s at stake if we get AI right—and what could happen if we get it wrong. \nFor resources and ways to join the apocaloptimist community\, please visit theaidocgetinvolved.com. \n\nDIRECTED BY Daniel Roher and Charlie Tyrell\nPRODUCED BY Daniel Kwan and Jonathan Wang\, Shane Boris\, Diane Becker\, Ted Tremper\n\nWe are especially grateful to the Sheffield Foundation for sponsoring this screening.
