Artificial Intelevision: Recent Episodes
Jordan Hildebrandt
The movies say the robots will take over. But will they? How does AI work in real life? Are the movies right about it? Each week, we pick a movie and a topic in AI, and explain how that piece of tech actually works, and how the movies got it right (or wrong). It's fun. Just don't say, "Hey Siri."
"Come with me if you want to live!" Introducing Artificial Intelevision, the fun introduction to how Artificial Intelligence works, explained using movies.
In this episode, Emily, Jordan, and Joseph discuss neural networks: what they are, how they learn, and what their limitations are. We talk about neural networks in the context of Black Mirror, Season 2 Episode 1 ("Be Right Back"), which treats the subject of AI and robotics and their possible future effects on our personal lives.
