Mo Gawdat spent two years travelling the world - from Shanghai to Riyadh, New York to London - to find out, sitting down with the leading minds shaping our future including Yoshua Bengio, Fei-Fei Li, Jeffrey Hinton, Max Tegmark, Elon Musk and Sam Altman. The result is a film that might change the way you see everything.
