About the film
Last Call Before A.G.I is an AI short by Matt Zien, about five minutes long. It's set on the night humanity votes to switch on artificial general intelligence (AGI), as a bar singer and an opera singer perform what may be the last song. It won the Outstanding AI Experimental Award at AI Film Festival Japan 2025. The Gyeonggi Content Agency, which posted the film, says it also took first place in the narrative category of the 2025 Korea AI Content Awards. The AI tools aren't named.
Who it's for:viewers who like music on screen and don't mind thinking about life after AI arrives.
Before you watch: the full version we found is on the Gyeonggi Content Agency's official YouTube channel, about 5 minutes 13 seconds; it isn't the director's own channel. A Gyeonggi Province government notice confirms the channel belongs to the agency. Another upload looks like the original, but whether the two versions match isn't stated. Spoken language and subtitles aren't stated. We haven't watched the whole film.
