In Ghost in the Machine, award-winning filmmaker Valerie Veatch (Love Child) dives into the past, present, and future of artificial intelligence (AI), offering a perspective that invites audiences to question whether we can even call it intelligence at all.
Returning to the Sundance Film Festival, Veatch uncovers the racial, cultural, political, capitalistic, and environmental forces—along with the harms and biases—that have fueled the current global AI boom. Bringing together a wide range of thought leaders and experts, Ghost in the Machine implores audiences to challenge the ongoing exploitation of automation, consider their responsibility to it, and examine their growing reliance on AI in an increasingly automated world.
