Rendering AI: Cinema and Artificial Intelligence
Course Description
This course examines film renderings of artificial intelligence to foster critical perspectives on AI's entanglement with human experiences (e.g., of identity, work, privacy, sex, aging, memory, death). Issues raised will include: the political economics of computational culture; the ethics of algorithmic tracking systems; the religious underpinnings of AI's promise to deliver efficient transport (of information, services, goods, passengers).
