Description
Generative AI is a type of artificial intelligence that produces text, images, audio, and video from patterns in data. It’s undergoing a huge surge in popularity and reshaping everything from work to creativity – but what is it, what are its limits and capabilities, and why does it hold such a unique place in our imaginations? In this film, Science Museum curator Laura Joy Pieters speaks to five experts to explore our responses to AI, from rational critiques to cultural fantasies, and to learn what our fascination and fear of intelligent machines reveals about our very human habits.
Featuring Anil Seth, Arthur Gretton, Kanta Dihal, Marcus du Sautoy, and Marta Halina.
