NOTES

Title from disc

Until this decade, the question of immortality was the stuff of science fiction, but now experts in the fields of artificial intelligence and robotics suggest it will indeed be possible. This cinematic documentary explores the latest technological advancements in AI, robotics and biotech, and poses the question: what is the essence of the human mind, and can this be replicated? Or even more unsettling, could there one day be cloned versions of people, clones which are better, smarter, and immortal?
