A science fiction movie guide to ethical and responsible innovation

Can watching science fiction help guide ethical and responsible innovation (including responsible AI)?
This week's video draws on author, scientist and Risk Bites producer Andrew Maynard's book "Films from the Future: The Technology and Morality of Sci-Fi Movies". Using twelve science fiction movies, and drawing on emerging technology trends from gene editing to artificial intelligence, the book provides an entertaining, compelling, and quite unique introduction to technology ethics. Essential reading for entrepreneurs, innovators, and anyone who wants to use new technologies to create a more just, equitable and vibrant future.
Movies include Jurassic Park, Minority Report, Limitless, Transcendence, Ex Machina, Contact, and more.
