Episode 252 - Wargames (1983)
Manage episode 397450306 series 2787208
This week, Kitlondon is back to talk about more AI. This time though, we're going back to the early 80s, and it's less about AI, and more about hacking. We watched Wargames, starring Matthew Broderick and Ally Sheedy. When a High School student hacks in to a government computer thinking he's just playing a game, he accidently puts in to motion events that could start World War III. So, is it just a product of it's time, dated and out of touch? Or is there more here that makes it the classic that some believe it to be? Let's find out...
