Ghost in the Machine

The hidden origins of artificial intelligence lie not in machines, but in power structures – and reveal the fantasies and ideologies behind the hype that shapes our present and determines our future.

With this investigative essay documentary, director Valerie Veatch embarks on a journey through the world of artificial intelligence that is as fascinating as it is critical. GHOST IN THE MACHINE examines the philosophical, cultural and political forces behind the global AI boom and poses key questions: What is AI, anyway? Who is developing it? And what does it mean for the future of humanity?
