  • Ghost in the Machine - Absolute must-watch deep dive into so-called AI

    Writing for the Sundance Institute website, Erik Adams calls Valerie Veatch’s Ghost in the Machine "the scariest movie playing at the 2026 Sundance Film Festival". He’s not wrong. It’s not only scary, it’s also rage-inducing. Veatch traces the red line that links the current "AI " tools and the... continue

  • Palestine 36 - Harrowing and all too rare retelling of the...
