‘This technology is being pushed on us at a time when the world is moving towards authoritarianism’ (Geoffrey Hinton).

Does AI spell the end of humanity, or the dawn of a new utopia? Fringe First Winner Joe Sellman-Leava (Labels, Fanboy, It’s the Economy, Stupid!) might be a technophobe, but he’s going to try and find out!

Using innovative design and a whirlwind of uncanny impressions, Joe tells the story of a teacher, a student, and a copycat dictator, to examine the links between art, fascism and rapid technological change.

“A thoughtful and layered show encompassing impressive impressions with a meditation on AI” ★★★★ – The Stage

‘Smart, sharp writing’ ★★★★ – The Stage (Review for: It’s The Economy, Stupid!)

“A prescient, part-autobiographical, part-political warning about the AI invasion” Read About Stuff

” An inventive and thought-provoking hour” ★★★ – Theatre Weekly
