Episode description

In this episode, we dive into the fascinating portrayal of AI in two of the most iconic TV series: Battlestar Galactica (2004) and Westworld (2016).

Joined by special guest Rhianna Dhillon, we explore how these shows delve into the complex relationships between humans and AI, and the ethical questions that arise when artificial intelligence becomes nearly indistinguishable from humanity. From the Cylons’ search for identity in Battlestar Galactica to the hosts’ fight for autonomy in Westworld, we discuss how these series push the boundaries of AI storytelling on television.

Join us as we unpack the themes, characters, and narrative twists that make these shows essential for any sci-fi enthusiast.
