Reception
On the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, 78% of 18 critics' reviews are positive, with an average rating of 7.3/10.[4]
Chase Hutchinson of TheWrap wrote that the film "is a radical, necessary Molotov cocktail of a documentary that's being thrown right into the heart of our nonsense, nightmarish world of overinflated AI hype."[5]
Jason Gorber of Point of View wrote that it "is in many ways a perfect film of the age – messy, argumentative, grasping at answers in what feels to be a state of deep uncertainty."[6]
