Do you trust this computer? Documentary with Elon Musk Alert for Threat of Artificial Intelligence"You are my creator, but I am your master"). It was with the famous phrase of Mary Shelley, "mother" of the monster Frankenstein, that Chris Paine decided to start his new documentary that addresses the main points of discussion about the benefits and dangers of artificial intelligence (AI).Science fiction has long anticipated the rise of machine intelligence, and today a whole new generation of supercomputers is transforming every aspect of our lives. The trailer for Chris Paine's new documentary leaves this question well-grounded.The documentary "Do you trust this computer" explores the promises and dangers of this developing era and questions whether the IA will usher in an era with unprecedented potential or whether it will be our final invention.In the film, we see the growth of data analysis and machine learning and its power to transform society, which may include elections, medical diagnostics or the armaments sector.For over 1 hour the user will gain access to the viewpoint of some of the most influential figures in technology such as Google's founder Brain Andrew Ng and of course Elon Musk who used his Twitter to publicize the documentary and,
at the same time, to honor Stephen Hawking, who died last March.

Musk's opinion on Artificial Intelligence is widely known. The founder of Tesla and SpaceX believes that AI should start to be regulated before something bad happens and says "we have to be proactive."
The documentary jumps from subject to topic, from the assembly lines of the past to advanced robots, to bombs delivered by drones, and to fake news feeds.
Connecting all these threads is the effort of programmers and engineers to make machines that mimic not only the physical abilities of human beings but also features such as intuition and personality.
"Do you trust this computer" debuted yesterday, Thursday, and is accessible here http://doyoutrustthiscomputer.org/watch for free, but only until next Sunday, April 8.
