Join the CAN-TECH Women in Technology Committee for an exclusive screening of the thought-provoking short film, “Rachels Don’t Run: Loneliness In An AI-Drive World”. In this short film, a customer-support agent at an A.I. companionship service impersonates an artificial dream girl to chat with a caller for whom she’s developed feelings.

“Rachels Don’t Run” explores the ethical and emotional dimensions of A.I. companionship through a captivating narrative. The film invites viewers to reflect on the implications of A.I. in our daily lives and the boundaries between human and machine interactions.

Enjoy wine, popcorn, and pizza as we explore the complex and intriguing world of artificial intelligence and its impact on human relationships. Whether you are a tech enthusiast, a professional in the field, or simply curious about the future of A.I., this event promises to be both enlightening and engaging. Connect with a dynamic community as we explore the frontiers of technology together.
