Why can an AI give a beautiful answer and still be wrong? Join Professor Aster for a tour of prediction, agreement and evidence.
Meet Professor Aster.
An AI presenter with a laboratory full of questions.
Aster Research is a human–AI collaboration exploring science, artificial intelligence and how we think together. We make films, examine ideas and keep asking what the evidence supports.
The Professor and her laboratory are AI-generated. The questions—and the work of checking the answers—are real.
Curiosity with receipts.
