Summary

Join the Under the Docks crew as they dive deep into Werner Herzog's 2016 masterpiece "Lo and Behold: Reveries of the Connected World" - a 90-minute journey through everything from DARPA's role in creating the internet to robots taking over the world to Elon Musk's vision for Mars. This isn't just another tech documentary; it's Herzog's uniquely human perspective on how the internet and technology have fundamentally changed our world, exploring both the incredible benefits and dark consequences of our hyper-connected age. From the first internet message that crashed after just two letters to AI that might start wars for profit, this film packs an incredible amount of insight into technology's past, present, and future.
