Tickets on sale now.

Mo Gawdat on the AI revolution; and why we can’t afford to look away.

We are living through the most consequential technological shift in human history. Most of us have no idea what is actually coming.

Mo Gawdat does. As former Chief Business Officer of Google X, bestselling author and podcaster to millions, he has spent his career at the frontier of artificial intelligence; closer to its development, and its dangers, than almost anyone alive. And what he has seen has made it his life’s mission to ensure the rest of us are not left behind.

Chasing Utopia follows Gawdat across the world; from Shanghai to Riyadh, New York to London; as he seeks answers to the questions that keep the people building AI awake at night. His access is extraordinary; the architects of our AI future, speaking with a frankness rarely captured on film.

What they told him is unsettling, urgent, and essential.

This is not a film about technology. It is a film about what comes next for humanity; and what we can still do about it. Gawdat’s singular gift is making the incomprehensible feel personal, and the terrifying feel navigable. The result is the most important documentary of the moment; a film that leaves audiences not just shaken, but equipped.
