AI is here to stay. Will AI be the end of humanity or will it create a utopia? The AI Doc or How I Became an Apocaloptimist is a documentary that looks at the positives, negative, and mixed effects AI may have on society in the near future.

Here is a link to the AI Doc movie trailer:

Serial entrepreneur, podcaster, and (now) grad student Adam Yee and I went to see the AI Doc a few weeks ago and have been talking about it ever since.

The movie was made by the producers of one of my favorite movies, "Everything, Everywhere, All at Once". Here is a link to the "Everything" movie trailer:

If you see the AI Doc movie, or even if you don't we'd like to hear your thoughts on where AI is taking careers and society.
