{"product_id":"representing-the-new-ai-in-graham-allen-9781350378032","title":"Representing the New AI in Film and Television","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe 21st-century has witnessed rapid advances in artificial intelligence, giving rise to a society at once hopeful but also mistrustful of the possibilities that this technology offers. Our hopes and anxieties have played out across a variety of media in recent times, but arguably nowhere more significantly than on our screens.\u003cbr\u003eThis book explores a phenomenon, which it calls the new AI cinema and television, arguing that since the mid-2010s, a distinctly new phase in the representation of AI has occurred. Discussing films such as \u003ci\u003eBlade Runner 2049\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eEx Machina\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eGhost in the Shell\u003c\/i\u003e alongside television series such as \u003ci\u003eWestworld\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eHumans\u003c\/i\u003e, it argues that they have moved away from apocalyptic scenarios towards questions of personhood, consciousness, and social inclusion and exclusion. In doing so, it intervenes in some of today's most pressing debates, including gender representation, AI ethics, climate catastrophe, and the rights of artificially intelligent beings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Graham Allen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1350378038\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781350378032\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bloomsbury Academic\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/26\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.14lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.56d","brand":"Graham Allen","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47001387008255,"sku":"9781350378032","price":90.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_59b9e881-3ce8-4d95-a3d5-728bac33e5b8.jpg?v=1751600922","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/representing-the-new-ai-in-graham-allen-9781350378032","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
