 white christmas episode


Black Mirror's White Christmas episode is happening IRL. What could possibly go wrong?

#artificialintelligence

At 11:00pm on Halloween, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), is inviting you to control a real person through a game called BeeMe. BeeMe is the first augmented reality game that will allow the internet (read: anyone and everyone) to control the actions and movement of a real life person. The mission is simple: Users must work together to form a hive mind (get it?) That real person will actually be a trained actor, whose identity will not be revealed. If you're reminded of that Black Mirror episode where Jon Hamm's character Matt can speak and see through the eyes of men who need help successfully interacting with women, you'd be bang on the mark.
