Ep. 35 Unfixed at the Movies: WarGames and Terminator 2

Before ChatGPT, before AI agents, and before every company suddenly became an AI company, there were movies trying to make sense of intelligent machines and humanity’s future. In this first Unfixed at the Movies episode, Zach and Nik revisit WarGames and Terminator 2 to explore why stories about AI escaping human control remain so powerful. They discuss learning machines, human responsibility, technological optimism, and what these films still have to teach us about the choices people make when building new technologies.
