Beeldend kunstenaar Trevor Paglen onderzoekt in zijn werk ethische problemen rondom de nieuwste technologie. Samen met het Kronos Quartet creëerde hij een multimediaconcert, waarin de alomtegenwoordigheid van kunstmatige intelligentie centraal staat.

Terwijl Kronos muziek speelt van onder anderen Laurie Anderson, George Gershwin, Steve Reich en Terry Riley, projecteert Paglen een spectaculair vormgegeven live video-feed van hetzelfde concert boven het viertal, maar dan zoals het wordt waargenomen door kunstmatige intelligentie. Sight Machine laat op indringende wijze zien hoe menselijke creativiteit en emotionele expressie gereduceerd worden tot data en berekeningen. De ene keer met een komisch effect, de andere keer als grimmige waarschuwing.
