About the film:

Director Adam Bhala Lough sets out to understand the technology and people at the center of AI. His quest sends him on a path towards OpenAI CEO, Sam Altman.

When he can’t sit down with Altman, Adam travels to India to create an AI version of him to interview instead. Sam Bot is a new kind of documentary subject and collaborator, who challenges Adam in surprising and hilarious ways.
