Visionary Lola Tillyaeva on the set of Human Kind, 2021
“I am grateful for the unique opportunity to take part in the filming of the Human Kind Institute documentary project.
Our debut documentary, Human Kind, is attempting to answer the forever relevant questions that confront all humanity: ‘What does it mean to be human?’ ‘What is consciousness?’ ‘How to be happy and retain our youthful vigour?’ ‘How to help yourself?’
To make the 24-minute film, we turned to some of the world’s leading experts in cognitive science, meditation, the gut-brain connection and neuroscience, including professors of the University of California, LA (UCLA) and the University of California, Irvine.
We also took an innovative approach and set out to explore these fundamentally human questions through the lens of artificial intelligence.”
