Emily M. Bender is featured in the new documentary Ghost in the Machine (directed by Valerie Veatch), which premiered at Sundance 2026 and was also selected for the 2026 Seattle International Film Festival. As Bender writes in a newsletter post reviewing the film, "Ghost in the Machine is a rich, historically grounded and well-researched exploration of what is going on in the name of 'AI'." Come from the well-chosen archival footage of various AI boosters saying unhinged things in public, stay for the chance to become an informed consumer of reporting on this tech.
