The catalogue in 3D

The film shelves have a room of their own that you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real films from the same catalogue when you tell them what you feel like watching. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this film is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

What happens

Unknown: Killer Robots is a 2023 documentary film about the use of AI in warfare. A review in The Daily Telegraph said that the subject was "handled with some hyperbole alongside the seriousness" and that "it gives a sense of just how advanced AI is already, through the eyes of the scientists racing to develop devices that use it as well as those campaigning to limit their potential." As of January 2024, review aggregation website Rotten Tomatoes gives the film a score of 100% based on 8 reviews. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
