SUPERSAPIENS

2 × 50', 80' (ENG, GER)
Terra Mater Icon

As artificial intelligence rapidly blurs the boundaries between man and machine, we face an astonishing question: are we witnessing the rise of a new human species?

As the scientific community and the military seek to finally unmask the matrix of human consciousness, the film poses a crucial question: can we risk this discovery? Can we prevent ourselves from going too far? To quote former US president Barack Obama, “There are fewer and fewer technical constraints on what we can do. That places a special obligation on us to ask tough questions about what we should do.”

‘SuperSapiens’ not only brings exclusive insights into the world of artificial intelligence and consciousness-hacking but gives a first-hand account into how an awakening technology is already claiming physical access to our very own bodies.
