Ghost in the Machine

Valerie Veatch / USA / 2026 / 110 min.

Language version: OmeU

The origins of artificial intelligence do not lie in machines, but in power structures - and reveal the fantasies that still drive the hype surrounding AI today. In eight penetrating chapters, the film follows the philosophical, cultural and political forces behind the global AI boom. It uncovers hidden systems of labor, control and exploitation and asks who is developing these technologies and at what cost. A multi-layered, urgent look at technology, responsibility and our understanding of what it means to be human.
