The Tea With Krema

09/11/2024

Dear Krema Community,

Creating TheTeaWithKrema has been such a wonderful journey. I’ve enjoyed learning more about myself and Ema, listening to the stories of each guests, and creating so many fun memories. It’s been almost four years since Ema and I decided to go for it and create this podcast.

After all this time, I’ve reached a point where I’m unable to continue the work necessary to coproduce, record, edit, and publish our episodes. This means that TheTeaWithKrema will not be able to continue for the foreseeable future.

I genuinely hope I can find a way to make everything work out again, but until then, we will not be releasing any new episodes. Thank you all for your support throughout this journey!

-Kris of Krema

🤖EPISODE 85: Pop Culture Brew: AI Depictions in Film🎥

Category 2 is the "fun" artificial intelligence or the precursors to the apocalypse. If they were given the chance, they may cause war against humanity. If you've seen any of these movies, you'll notice that there are also some equally sad movies about AI here, but we felt they didn't encompass the apocalypse causing AI. This category is more about the AI that becomes conscious and then makes us sad with their consciousness... If you'd like a good cry, we'd suggest AI or Bicentennial Man.

Are we missing any "fun" AI? Let us know in the comments below!

🤖EPISODE 85: Pop Culture Brew: AI Depictions in Film🎥

In our newest episode, we chat about two categories of AI movies. This is Category 1: Apocalyptic Artificial Intelligence. Sadly, Ema has only seen three of these AI movies, and hasn't seen the classics. We know there are way more films with apocalyptic AI, but these were our top choices. Are we missing any from the list? Category 1 is mostly made up of the AI that have either waged war with humans or humans have waged war with them because they fear they may take over the world one day.

Which classic AI movie would you suggest Ema starts with? Let us know in the comments below!

‎Show The Tea with Krema, Ep A.I. Depictions in Film - Jun 8, 2024

06/12/2024

AI has been around for ages, but it seems like recently the conversation around AI has been moving and shifting so quickly, that we can hardly keep up.

It's been in our movies and media for decades, but now we're starting to see that reality's version of AI is not so different than what was depicted in movies back in the day. What do you think?

Listen to our newest episode on YouTube!

Artificial Intelligence, aka A.I., has been around in film since the mid 80s. This means that the idea of humans living alongside machines with A.I. is older...
