The Rise of Robots

Elle Osili-Wood guides us through the soundtracks for the best
robots in video games as well as exploring how AI is being used
as both a story-telling device and gameplay mechanic in gaming.
Featuring music from Halo Infinite (by Gareth Coker) with themes
around human-AI bonds, NieR: Automata (Square Enix Music) which
asks what counts as being alive, and Detroit: Become Human
(Philip Sheppard) which explores the idea of civil rights for
robots.
