iHuman

Underneath the surface, an invisible revolution is building up, destined to guide humanity into uncharted areas. The pioneers and the brightest minds among the crème de la crème of Artificial Intelligence labs have taken up the mission to draw a roadmap to the unknown. A daring and politically charged documentary, wrapped in a thriller-like ambiance, that addresses all the poignant and spiny questions. Will AI be used as a lever of progress and a means of achieving greater good, or will it lead to a dystopian society of unprecedented totalitarian control? A high-tech war is raging on and Pandora’s Box suddenly seems way within reach.
