"Docuthon is very important because it sheds light on subject matter that not many people are aware of, including myself. I think what we're going to be looking for is a very interesting storyline. Basically, I want to be interested in what I'm seeing and to learn from it."

" We're at such an exciting point when it comes to AI and this is also a moment for filmmakers to have their say in the narrative. We need more people to feel inspired about all the innovation that's happening around the world. Using AI for drug discovery and development is going to be a game changer. It feels like we're on the cusp of some really huge breakthroughs when it comes to treating disease, to living longer, to improving people's quality of life."
