AlphaGo
Directed by Greg Kohs
Produced by Reel As Dirt, Moxie Pictures
A cerebral, suspenseful documentary about humanity's relationship with artificial intelligence, told through the lens of a historic competition between machine and master.
The ancient Chinese game of Go has long been considered a grand challenge for artificial intelligence. Yet in 2016, Google's DeepMind team announced that they would be taking on Lee Sedol, the world's most elite Go champion. AlphaGo chronicles the team as it prepares to test the limits of its rapidly-evolving AI technology. The film pits man against machine, and reveals as much about the workings of the human mind as it does the future of AI.
