A Point of View - Mindless Replicants
"What would it be like to consciously feel you were nothing but a robotic phenotype", asks Will Self, "pre-programmed to replicate its own integrated genotypic code then become...obsolete?"
Taking the contemporary TV series "Westworld" as his starting point, Will explores consciousness, humanity and artificial intelligence.
Producer: Adele Armstrong.
