Private Island – Chris Boyle | ‘Meme, Myself & AI’ *Handpicked*

‘Meme, Myself & AI’ is the third part of an anthology centered around AI and made with machine learning. We’re proud that the earlier films in this series have been watched by millions of people, won awards and made headlines across the globe.

Private Island and its director have established himself as a leading voice and visionary in AI technology. He’s spoken on panels, delivered keynotes, and been featured by outlets like The Economist, The New York Times, Wired, and the BBC. Beyond thought leadership, he actively applies machine learning across disciplines, from creating commercials for EE and Niantic to collaborating with Turner Prize-winning artist Gillian Wearing.

With this anthology, we’re learning how to use new tools and tell stories in exciting ways alongside exploring new visual aesthetics. In this concluding lm, Private Island aims to deepen the conversation about AI by confronting the monster in the mirror.

‘Meme, Myself & AI’ is a mixed-media lm that combines live-action footage alongside synthetic visuals, synthetic audio and traditional vfx. This continues the approach of the anthology’s earlier films that form is function by actively employing technology in a playful fusion of contemporary culture and cutting-edge innovation.
