Until this decade, the question of immortality was the stuff of science fiction, but now experts in the fields of artificial intelligence and robotics suggest it will indeed be possible. This cinematic documentary explores the latest technological advancements in AI, robotics and biotech, and poses the question: what is the essence of the human mind, and can this be replicated? Or even more unsettling, could there one day be cloned versions of people, clones which are better, smarter, and immortal?
DVD, NTSC, region 0, wide screen (16:9) ; 2.0 Dolby Digital.
COMMUNITY REVIEWS
A.rtificial I.mmortality submitted by yufamily on July 11, 2023, 8:41am A lot of interesting concepts. A transhumanist believes that death is optional and thru the use of technology, we can achieve immortality. Tarasem is a concept that mind files can be captured and transferred to a robot. The "digital Deepak" - an AI clone of Deepak Chopra is just wild!
