Season 1, Episode 8: Spielberg's Minority Report and A.I.
Select Source
With Minority Report and A.I., Stephen Spielberg presents two visions of the future of techno-consciousness. Jay Dyer and Jay Weidner analyze the augmentation of consciousness through technology as self-awakening awareness and psychic surveillance. Though these are fanciful tales of a somewhat idyllic future, hidden within the details are subtle hints of the future to come. We learn of technology which has already become an accepted part of our current culture and advances yet to come.
