Abstract:
The era of Artificial Intelligence, or AI, that will forever change the lives of human beings is coming. This is an era where machines think like humans. Creative destruction, in which humans and machines mix exponentially, has already started. Every aspect of the human being will be restructured, including its time, jobs and even nature. How ready are we? We are facing the new future where humans and AI coexist. This documentary reveals both the blessing and disaster that AI may bring about and shares the choices left to us.

Motivations:
In a world constantly trying to understand itself, “Future Human: AI” provides us a striking scenario of how robotics is changing our lives and our values. It offers us some ideas of what to expect from an uncertain, but fascinating future and makes us wonder what does it mean to be a human being.
