Dans l'inconnu : Les robots tueurs

It's a repetitive documentary declared as film in Netflix .It was too boring with its narratives .Don't have to watch this childish documentary if really don't want to waste your valuable time .Dragging the scenes with repetitive narratives which is nothing new even for the kids .May be AI itself is surprised why he /she is so dull after watching this annoying fascinated dull story .it's good to avoid to watch this if you are really serious about either a tech film or a informative documentary .News channels may be more informative and thrilling now days, especially when they are covering military advancements and tech innovations by various countries .

Obviously, this 1-hour documentary can't cover every aspect of AI from every perspective with every nuance expertly explained, so IDK why so many other reviewers seem to bash it for not doing those things. It's only an hour, and it does a good job of touching on many of the issues & perspectives. Do we need AI? Of course. Will there be abuse? Of course. Is that already happening? Of course. Will it get worse? Of course. Will anyone try to slow that process down?

That's what I see as the real point of this documentary, and in that light, it does an excellent job of presenting the arguments for slowing down right beside the arguments for speeding up. That's why I think some reviewers were confused, or thought that the documentary was confused/confusing. It doesn't make an argument, and then answer that argument - it raises the issue to be debated & dealt with in a way that the average viewer can follow & (hopefully) appreciate.

Because EVERY example shown of AI being used, and the few examples shown of it being ABused, were dangerously easy for any government, corporation, faction, religion, glee club, or introvert next door to accomplish with no special training or equipment.

The military applications are the LEAST-worrying.

This is probably the worst of the various ham handed Netflix documentaries I have seen. It is simple minded and well behind the curve on potential issues with AI. In fact it conflates AGI (artificial general intelligence), with AI (artificial intelligence). And it portrays usage in warfighting the main threat. When existential threats are much more likely to come from general population, and in areas seemingly benign compared to warfighting.

Frankly a listen to any couple of lex fridman podcast with the top AI thinkers will teach the average person a lot more, and a lot more accurately about the issue.

Case in point: this documentary frets about AI making decisions about who to attack on the battlespace, which it calls a life or death decision. With zero AI 18 and 19-year olds were already already making such decisions for thousands of years, and from up to half a world away using non AI attack drones for the past 20 and 30 years. AI and algorithms have been demonstrated to make better decisions on that. In fact even in policing AI algorithms have been shown to be profoundly less biased than even expert humans And the existential threat to humans from AI is actually in the most banal of applications, not warfare. Tell an enabled and non-aligned (AI "alignment" is elusive goal of getting AI aligned with human interests) AI to produce as many paper clips as possible and an AI system may turn all atoms on earth into paper clips.

I would skip this nonsense dumbed down junk documentary.

So apparently they used a bunch of youtube videos without the creators' consent (like LowkoTV) to create this documentary and now make money essentially streaming the work of others on Netflix. You are highly mistaken if you believe a penny went to the original creators. Not even a dime, actually. Unethical, illegal and therefore not worth a minute of anyone's time.

You would think that at that point even in 2023 people have already learnt enough about AI to assess the implications and risks. Like many documentaries, however, this one does not talk about specific applications of AI, instead focusing on general information one could get by... asking AI (ironic, I know). I suppose it's good for people new to the technology world, but on the other hand, is it really?

I was was watching the doc fine until I saw Andrew Yang, who was described as a politician (he never held any elected office; he ran a hopeless presidential campaing once to make his face known, and ran for NY mayor. In our age where everyone gets a trophy for joining a race, Adrew is a perfect fit :) ) and a tech entrepreneur (he has never been one; he once ran a non-profit which achived nothing, and anither time sold Kaplan books). There are zillions of people who worked in AI robotics and did great things, but this doc decided to air Andrew Yang, and it lost credibility for me at that moment.
