Dokumentar-thrilleren iHUMAN tar oss med på en reise inn i den «usynlige revolusjonen», hvor kunstig intelligens forandrer oss som mennesker, samfunnet og fremtiden. Vi er besatt, avhengig og kontrollert  av teknologi. Men, hvem har egentlig kontrollen? iHUMAN er den første kinodokumentaren som viser den akselererende industriens politiske og sosiale konsekvenser gjennom møter med noen av de største pionerene i vår tid.
