4. The Joy of AI
Professor Jim Al-Khalili looks at how we have created machines that can simulate, augment, and even outperform the human mind - and why we shouldn't let this spook us. He reveals the story of the pursuit of AI, the emergence of machine learning and the recent breakthroughs brought about by artificial neural networks. He shows how AI is not only changing our world but also challenging our very ideas of intelligence and consciousness. Along the way, we'll investigate spam filters, meet a cutting-edge chatbot, look at why a few altered pixels makes a computer think it's looking at a trombone rather than a dog and talk to Demis Hassabis, who heads DeepMind and whose stated mission is to 'solve intelligence, and then use that to solve everything else'. Stephen Hawking remarked 'AI could be the biggest event in the history of our civilisation. Or the worst'. Jim argues that AI is a potent new tool that should enhance our lives, not replace us.

5. Computer and Leonardo's secret (Компьютер и загадка Леонардо)
A history of cybernetics from first machines to mankind's aspirations to create a being in its image, and about the computing power of machines that were able to detect Leonardo da Vinci's figure among the characters of his own paintings.
6. The Singularity
Within the coming decades we will be able to create AIs with greater than human intelligence, bio-engineer our species and re-design matter through nanotechnology. How will these technologies change what it means to be human? Director Doug Wolens speaks with leading futurists, computer scientists, artificial intelligence experts, and philosophers who turn over the question like a Rubik’s Cube. Ultimately, if we become more machine-like, and machines more like us, will we sacrifice our humanity to gain something greater? Or will we engineer our own demise? THE SINGULARITY is a comprehensive and insightful documentary film that examines technology’s accelerating rate, and deftly addresses the resulting moral questions.

7. TechnoCalyps
Are we prepared for dealing with the prospect that humanity is not the end of evolution? Technocalyps is an intriguing three-part documentary on the notion of transhumanism by Belgian visual artist and filmmaker Frank Theys. The latest findings in genetics, robotics, artificial intelligence, bionics and nanotechnology appear in the media every day, but with no analysis of their common aim: that of exceeding human limitations. The director conducts his enquiry into the scientific, ethical and metaphysical dimensions of technological development.

8. Almost Human
The filmmaker Jeppe Rønde has invited 10 of the world's foremost researchers - and a robot! - to rethink our relationship with technology and its dilemmas from the outside. Philosophers, anthropologists, archaeologists and programmers show us through their thought experiments that our relationship with technology is just as much about our relationship with ourselves.

9. Intelligenza artificiale - Una rivoluzione per l'umanità ? (Intelligenza artificiale - Una rivoluzione per l'umanità ?)
A journey into the world of artificial intelligence, to understand its operating logic and current and future applications. The TV program explains what AI is, its history, its current and future applications.</p><p> It also illustrates the figure of Pepper, a humanoid robot that is the subject of important research at the University of Palermo. The TV program also talks about future developments of AI, the opportunities and possible social risks that it could entail: an aspect to focus on, both for the need to arrive at a correct algorithm, and to achieve an indispensable regulation of the sector.

12. Algorithms of Beauty
In 1772, Englishwoman Mary Delany wrote to her niece: “I have found a new way of imitating flowers.” The imitation in question was the art form called decoupage, based on cut-outs and reshuffling of pictures. The charm and botanical precision of these works attracts attention of even today’s artists, among others by an anonymous programmer who is trying to invent a way of capturing the flowers’ vivacity in pictures. With this aim in mind, she has created an algorithm, which would combine science and beauty, similarly to Delaney’s efforts, whose illustrations it is meant to animate.
13. We Speak Music
There Is Always Something New Happening. So where is our limit? Our artform beatboxing has given so much to the present and has so much more to give in the future. Working in collaboration with Nokia Bell Labs the legendary beatboxer and member of the beatbox community, Reeps One, took a journey of discovery to understand more about the entire art form and how it inspires communities, scientists and engineers.

15. AI Generated These I Had No Hands
Exploring the diaspora and how we exist in the Western landscape, we are on this land that has a colonial agenda. At the beginning of the video, I put traditional paintings depicting the “sublime”- which come from the colonist lens, and then I added AI-generated images to re-catalog my experience living in this country. The keywords I put into the system to AI-generate images are words that are relevant to how I grew up, including pop-culture references, key landscapes from where I grew up, and critical political words- the Taiwanese flag in itself is a highly politicized word.
