Screenings
There’s something deeply compelling about art born out of acute anxiety — perhaps because it stems from vulnerability and a need for clarity. The AI Doc: Or How I Became an Apocaloptimist grew out of co-director Daniel Roher’s profound unease about the future, especially the role artificial intelligence will play in shaping it. Together with Charlie Tyrell, Roher explores both the dazzling possibilities and risks of these fast-evolving tools, along with the price they may carry.
Combining expert interviews, home videos, and animations, the film meets this pressing AI discourse with curiosity and heart, clarifying complex ideas while acknowledging how much remains uncertain and deeply human. Rather than claiming to have all the answers, The AI Doc offers a conversation that feels urgent, hopeful, and impossible to ignore. — AT
