Robocop & Upgrade: Can Man and Machine Become One? | A.I Pt 11

In this week's episode, James and Matt explore the idea of synchronization between man and machine as they discuss two films where the lines between robot and human are blurred. They take a look at Paul Verhoeven's satirical sci-fi classic Robocop (1987) and Leigh Whannell's body horror-filled Upgrade (2018). Through these films, they examine what happens when humans and machines start to merge, questioning where the human ends and the machine begins. Join us as we delve into the ethical, existential, and technological implications of man-machine integration in these groundbreaking films.
