In The Seats With...Ann Shin and 'A.rtificial I.mmortality'

If you could live forever...would you want to? On this episode we jump into the opening night affair at Hot Docs 2021 with 'A.rtificial I.mmortality'... Through the advent of artificial intelligence, artificial immortality is no longer science fiction, it's on the brink of being science fact.
