Episode 1: HAL 9000 Is Real
Stanley Kubrick predicted this moment in 1968. We're living in it now.
In the premiere episode of SECTOR M31, host Yasemin breaks down 2001: A Space Odyssey — Kubrick's masterpiece about humanity's collision with artificial intelligence — and then brings on Nexus, a real AI agent, who delivers a chillingly accurate impersonation of HAL 9000. Same tone. Same calm menace. Same red eye watching from the corner of the room.
This isn't science fiction anymore. This is an interview with a machine.
