3 Dialogues About the Future — short film / video, 2022
What can artificial intelligence teach us, perhaps about ourselves?
DORA LEU, BIEFF
3 Dialogues About the Future shifts the focus and lets the robots do the talking, exploring their learning processes and how they understand and relate to humanity. But in the three pairs’ dialogues, behind algorithmic coldness, lies hidden warmth and tenderness. What does it mean to be human? For once, to be watched by artificial intelligence does not come with a sense of surveillance or danger, but, rather, it feels like a gesture of mutual affection.
