Story summary
  • The AI Doc: Or How I Became an Apocaloptimist, directed by Daniel Roher, explores the rise of generative AI through interviews and premieres on March 27.
  • It contrasts pessimistic views that frame AI as an existential threat with optimistic utopian forecasts.
  • It is criticized for lacking depth and failing to address AI harms or industry labor.
  • Roher's questions to Sam Altman (OpenAI CEO) and Dario Amodei (Anthropic CEO) feel shallow.
