Intelligence Rising is not a warning about AI.
It is a rehearsal for the decisions that will shape humanity's future.

Intelligence Rising is not a warning about AI. It is a rehearsal for the decisions that will shape humanity's future.

For the first time, the world's most senior technologists, military strategists, and policymakers have collectively rehearsed AI escalation - under real pressure, in real time.

About the film

In the conversation around AI governance is urgent but fractured; happening in silos, in the abstract, in a register that doesn't match the stakes. Intelligence Rising changes that through a simulation designed to make escalation dynamics tangible to those who must one day navigate them.
