iHUMAN follows pioneers at the frontline of the race to develop the ever more sophisticated AI to find the questions we need to ask at this crucial point in history.


It's time to pose the questions we need to find answers to today. Is artificial intelligence safe for us? How does it affect who we are? What goals and values do we encode in it, and do we even have control over it?

There are claims that the country that becomes a leader in artificial intelligence, will be able to control the world. As the amount of data being processed and the computing power of computers increases, we are facing a revolution. Artificial intelligence will undoubtedly change our lives and the world beyond recognition, and it will be an irreversible process. Are we ready for it? Is it possible to introduce regulations in this field? It is worth setting international standards and regulations for its safe implementation and use. But are we capable of not crossing the boundaries we have set?
