Matthew Modine "is one of the best, most adaptable film actors of his generation," says The New York Times. Modine&rsquo;s iconic portrayals in films such as Alan Parker&rsquo;s BIRDY, Louden Swain in VISION QUEST, Stanley Kubrick&rsquo;s FULL METAL JACKET, and Dr. Martin &ldquo;Papa&rdquo; Brenner in Netflix&rsquo;s global phenomenon STRANGER THINGS have cemented his legacy in the entertainment industry. Modine recently starred in the Netflix political thriller series "Zero Day," where he plays the Speaker of the House. If you watch this Cybercrime Magazine video interview with Modine, then you might also call him an expert on the good, the bad, and the ugly that artificial intelligence (AI) brings to society. Our host Sam White dives deep into AI, the Internet, cybercrime, privacy, surveillance, and a whole lot more with Modine. Modine draws parallels between George Orwell&rsquo;s &ldquo;1984&rdquo;, the famous dystopian novel and cautionary tale, and what we are living through now in the age of AI. Despite his concerns around AI, Modine touts the benefits of it, namely its potential for sharing medical information during epidemics, helping to feed starving people around the globe, and more. If AI could play a role in taking down the U.S. power grid, then Modine helps us imagine what that might be like. Modine gets personal with Cybercrime Magazine and shares his love for New York City, his experience working with Robert De Niro, and a deepfake song involving George Michael and Wham! This interview may be Modine like you&rsquo;ve never seen him before. Visit the Official Matthew Modine Website at https://matthewmodine.com.
