The world has been in the grip of artificial intelligence for five years, and Jeroen Baert is a bit tired of it. That's why he thinks it's high time to strip the hype bare, in his well-known Nerdland style: an entertaining show with lots of humor, a critical eye, and a terminal allergy to buzzwords. In the hands of this comedian and computer scientist, you will discover together what AI is, what it isn't, and above all: how hilariously wrong it can go when De Technologie Die De Wereld Gaat Veranderen is exposed in a very expensive way. If (and that is a BIG if) the superintelligence ever takes over, we might as well have had a good laugh about it, right? Jeroen Baert is, besides Lieven Scheire and Hetty Helsmoortel, a permanent pillar of the wildly popular Nerdland podcast. As a stage animal with an engineering background (the combination exists!), he doesn't mince words: in the podcast, on the radio or TV, and now also on stage! “ Jeroen calls himself ‘the Lieven Scheire of the Aldi’, but he is so much more than that! I laughed out loud. Wonderful show, (self-)critical and honest. And judging by the audience, I wasn't the only one who enjoyed it! ” (A spectator at Nerdland Festival)
