On this week's episode, I'm joined by Nate Soares to talk about his new book, cowritten with Eliezer Yudkowsky, If Anyone Builds It, Everyone Dies: Why Superhuman AI Would Kill Us All. It's a fascinating book—some will say fearmongering and sensationalist; I, frankly, think they're overly optimistic about our ability to constrain the development of general intelligence in AI—in large part because of how it's structured. Each chapter is preceded by a fable of sorts about the nature of intelligence and the desires of intelligent beings that look and think very differently from humans. The point in each of these passages is less that AI will want to eliminate humanity and more that it might do so incidentally, through natural processes of resource acquisition.  This made me think about how AI is typically portrayed in film; it is all too often a Terminator-style scenario, where the intelligence is antagonistic in human ways and for human reasons. We talked some about how storytellers could do a better job of thinking about AI as it might actually exist versus how it might be like us; Ex Machina is a movie that came in for special discussion due to the thoughtful nature of the treatment of its robotic antagonist's desires. If this episode made you think, I hope you share it with a friend!

Welcome to Dev Game Club, where this week we complete our series on Portal. We talk about the ending part of the game, the increasing difficulty, the cake, and the boss and declare ourselves Still Alive. Dev Game Club looks at classic video games and plays through them over several episodes, providing commentary. Sections played: Finished the game! Issues covered: puzzle hockey stick, having puzzles cross through multiple rooms, mechanical additions to the sequel, limiting the additional portal mechanics, having to think about getting across rooms, timing puzzles, how the portals line up, not supporting the twitch elements well, is Chell an android? (she is not -B), the feeling of escape, test subjects getting behind the walls, tactical freedom vs strategic freedom, the importance of context, the meta aspect of these narratives, the subtlety of the cake (until it isn't), "now I'm in Half-Life," competing with Black Mesa, the boss fight, thinking in portals, the final exam and having all the tools, timers as a crutch, the perfectly balanced end point, seeing the outside and being in the Half-Life world, the cake room, the character of GLaDOS as an amalgam of personality modules, triumphant GLaDOS, "the cake is a lie," the game hitting in a different way, the Weighted Companion Cube, having to be interactive, using games as a substrate for "non-interactive" entertainment, the grungy environment vs what's going on, a better show than a game (except maybe a couple of scenes), freeing your mind, the limits of new mechanics, being just one idea with some small sub-ideas, lean/no fat, really great onboarding, a light touch with narrative, everything coming together and artistic cohesion, a meta moment about the SteamDeck, portals!, safety in the portals, portal-based renderers, the one game that brought you in, another very kind review that we sometimes live up to.

Marisa Tormo alerta sobre los riesgos de usar la inteligencia artificial sin criterio y defiende una educación tecnológica con enfoque humano. La inteligencia artificial ha pasado de ser una promesa futurista a convertirse en una herramienta cotidiana. Está en buscadores, plataformas de streaming, aplicaciones educativas y herramientas laborales. Pero su popularización también ha traído consigo una pregunta crucial: ¿estamos preparados para convivir con la IA sin perder el control? La consultora en tecnología digital e inteligencia artificial, Marisa Tormo, reflexiona sobre este desafío en su nuevo libro "Inteligencia Artificial. A la conquista de la nueva era". Lejos de los tecnicismos, propone una mirada cercana, práctica y, sobre todo, crítica.ChatGPT o Grock 3: Superhéroes digitales en nuestro día a día Tormo recurre a una metáfora clara y original para explicar el funcionamiento de los grandes modelos de lenguaje de inteligencia artificial como ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude o Grok. Los presenta como superhéroes con personalidad propia: "Chargé Peté es el amigo sabio y simpático; Gemini, el empollón que te organiza la vida; Claude es el formal y ético, y Grok es el cuñado irónico que siempre suelta la verdad incómoda en Navidad". Su enfoque no busca idealizar estas tecnologías, sino ayudar a comprender cómo usarlas con criterio: "No hay que casarse con ninguno. Yo misma cambio de IA como de zapatos, según lo que necesite". La clave, dice, está en el usuario: saber qué preguntar, cómo evaluar la respuesta y contrastar la información.Tres errores que cometemos al usar IA En su análisis, Tormo identifica tres grandes riesgos en el uso actual de la inteligencia artificial: el uso sin conciencia, el sesgo y el miedo. "Ya hay quien utiliza la IA para manipular opiniones, crear identidades ficticias o fabricar noticias falsas. Y como trabaja a una velocidad que no imaginamos, muchas veces reaccionamos cuando ya es demasiado tarde", advierte. También subraya que, pese a su nombre, la inteligencia artificial no piensa ni razona. "Es un sistema que repite patrones a partir de datos humanos. Si esos datos tienen sesgos (racistas, machistas, excluyentes), la IA los reproducirá con apariencia de objetividad". El tercer riesgo, añade, es el miedo: "Cuando usamos tecnología para vigilar, sustituir personas o controlar decisiones, perdemos el rumbo. La solución no es solo regular. Hace falta conciencia, ética práctica y formación".De la ciencia ficción a lo cotidiano Lo que antes parecía sacado de películas como Her o Ex Machina, hoy forma parte de nuestra vida diaria. "Desde que el móvil nos despierta y nos dice si va a llover, hasta que Google Maps sugiere una ruta alternativa: la IA moldea nuestras decisiones sin que lo notemos", explica Tormo. Lejos de promover alarmismos, su enfoque es constructivo. "No se trata de temer la tecnología, sino de ponerla a trabajar para nosotros. Ya no solo buscamos, ahora creamos junto a ella". Comparte un ejemplo doméstico: su hijo, bloqueado con un trabajo de química, pidió a ChatGPT que se lo explicara como si estuviera en primero de bachillerato. "La IA se convirtió en su profesor particular, con un tono neutro, sin juzgar ni cansarse. No es magia, son conocimientos humanos implementados con criterio".¿Quién gana la partida: programar o pensar? Tormo también desafía un mito educativo: "Durante años se dijo que había que enseñar a programar. Hoy, lo que realmente marca la diferencia es saber pensar". Las llamadas soft skills (empatía, creatividad, pensamiento crítico o intuición), tradicionalmente relegadas a un segundo plano, se convierten ahora en el principal valor diferencial frente a la máquina. "Ya no se trata de hacer redacciones desde cero, sino de usar la IA como punto de partida: pedirle ideas, estructura, contexto… y luego aplicar tu voz humana". En las aulas, propone un enfoque más práctico: enseñar a usar la IA sin miedo, con criterio, para potenciar el aprendizaje y no para sustituirlo. "La IA no es más lista que tú ni que yo. Sólo es más rápida", resume Tormo. Y por eso, insiste, no debemos delegar nuestro pensamiento en ella. Su mensaje final es directo y sin rodeos: "Esto no va solo de saber usar la IA, sino de tener claro para qué la usamos". Porque el criterio, la responsabilidad y la creatividad siguen siendo, por ahora, profundamente humanos, según recuerda Marisa Tormo.

Nach den Sommerfolgen sind wir mit einer neuen Ausgabe unserer Science-Fiction-Spezialreihe zurück! Peter ist wieder zu Gast bei Eva und dieses Mal geht es um ein Thema, das uns im Film schon viel länger beschäftigt als im Alltag. Während die Künstliche Intelligenz im Alltag erst seit kurzer Zeit eine wichtige Rolle spielt, wird in der Science-Fiction schon lange über sie spekuliert. Filme wie Ghost in the Shell, Blade Runner oder Ex Machina haben unser Bild von Maschinen, Bewusstsein und Menschlichkeit geprägt. Aber was ist eigentlich Bewusstsein, und haben wir Menschen überhaupt eines? Haben wir eine Chance gegen den Aufstand der Maschinen? Und, müssen wir uns damit abfinden, bald nicht mehr die intelligentesten Wesen auf der Erde zu sein? Über all das und noch mehr diskutieren Eva und Peter in dieser Folge.

In this episode, we explore how artificial intelligence has been portrayed in popular culture, from the replicants of Blade Runner to the feminized AI of Ex Machina. We examine the fundamental philosophical questions these stories raise: What constitutes life? What separates consciousness from programming? At what point would we need to recognize an artificial entity as deserving rights and autonomy?The conversation takes us through foundational texts like Isaac Asimov's "The Feeling of Power" and Harlan Ellison's "I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream," films like Zardoz and Logan's Run, and modern explorations of AI ethics. We discuss how these fictional portrayals often reveal more about human nature than about technology itself—particularly in how gender dynamics and toxic masculinity in the tech world manifest in our imagined AI futures.

Is it even possible to make a truly anti-war film in an industry that so often glorifies violence? And how does the bone-rattling sound design help Alex Garland disappear like a ghost from his own movie?The lads dig into the ethics of representation, the thin line between immersion and complicity, and—most importantly—what Warfare might really be trying to say beneath all the smoke, sweat, and shell casings.CONSUUUME to find out all this and much MUCH more!PLUS!

Ben and Rob summon ‘Men' (2022), written and directed by visionary director Alex Garland. This surreal, unsettling folk horror stars Jessie Buckley as a grieving woman plagued by a series of near-identical men—all played by Rory Kinnear—in a remote English village. As Alex Garland leaves behind the structured sci-fi of Ex Machina and Annihilation, ‘Men' marks a bold turn into dream logic, emotional horror, and symbolic storytelling.But what is Men really saying? What do the Green Man and Christ imagery mean in the context of British folk horror? Why do all the men have the same face—and why does the film's final monster feel more tragic than terrifying?

Welcome to the LIVING FOR THE BOYLE review series!  Daniel Francis Boyle originally hailed from Manchester, England and his filmmaking career took off thirty years ago in 1995 with the release of acclaimed cult thriller Shallow Grave.  And ever since then, Danny Boyle (as he's officially known) has carved out a uniquely successful career not only achieving box office success several times but also winning a few Oscars along the way.  During this time period, he has also become one of MY personal favorite directors, having helmed excellent ORIGINAL stories spanning several genres including children's fantasy, science fiction, crime drama, horror, and biopic.  Over the next few months, I will be reviewing some of my favorite entries from his filmography in the lead-up to the long-awaited sequel to one of his more successful films….28 Years Later which will be released in the U.S. on June 20!It's finally here!  Following several months of hype including one of THE more iconic trailers of recent years, Danny Boyle has returned to this ongoing post-apocalyptic saga.  Also returning is screenwriter Alex Garland (Annihilation, Ex Machina) and together they have crafted a new story within this post-apocalyptic universe taking place entirely on the British Isles several years (28 actually) after the initial outbreak of the "Rage virus" which overtook the UK.  This story focuses on young Spike (Alfie Williams) who lives on a remote island off the coast of the infected mainland in a quaint village with his mother (Jodie Comer) and father (Aaron Taylor-Johnson).  There are several harrowing run-in's with the infected but at its core, this is a coming-of-age story.  So does it live up to the hype?  Let's find out....Host & Editor: Geoff GershonEditor: Ella GershonProducer: Marlene GershonSend us a texthttps://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/

Ben and Rob welcome Annihilation, Alex Garland's 2018 cosmic horror that proved too complex for the box office despite critical adoration. Starring Natalie Portman as a biologist on a grief-fuelled mission into a zone where DNA scrambles and metaphors get literal, Annihilation is part horror, part elegy, and part existential crisis. Alex Garland's adaptation of the novel is somehow even bleaker than the source novel, perhaps contributing to it often being considered a poor follow up to Ex Machina.But what's so interesting about Annihilation's five act structure?

We discussed the journalistic process of rebuilding the day's actions portrayed in the film from the memory of those who participated, Mendoza's work with Garland on Civil War, and the cinematic experience of trying to help people understand what it's like to go into battle after getting your brain rattled. The movie releases on April 11, and I strongly recommend watching it in a theater to get that fully immersive sonic effect. And if you enjoyed this episode, I hope you share it with a friend.
