synopsis

More Human Than Human explores what it means to live in the age of intelligent machines. In this personal, playful and at times dramatic quest, the filmmaker finds out how much of his creativity and human values are at stake as he builds his own robot to replace himself as a filmmaker. More than just an exposé on the pros and cons of new technology, the filmmaker's journey takes him to the world's leading AI experts and robot pioneers confronting them with existential questions such as: will AI, infinitely smarter, interconnected and possibly self-aware, render humanity obsolete?
More Human Than Human onderzoekt wat het betekent om te leven in een tijdperk van intelligente machines. In deze persoonlijke, speelse en soms dramatische zoektocht ontdekt de filmmaker hoeveel van zijn creativiteit en menselijke waarden op het spel staan, terwijl hij zijn eigen robot bouwt om zichzelf als filmmaker te vervangen. Zal kunstmatige intelligentie (AI), oneindig slimmer, onderling verbonden en mogelijk zelfbewust, de mensheid overbodig maken?
