Episode Synopsis

We investigate instances where artificial intelligence and machine learning systems have detected inexplicable patterns or presences that human observers missed. The episode covers the controversial 2023 case of a security AI flagging non-existent people in empty rooms, and the pattern-recognition algorithm that discovered mysterious signals in historical ghost photography. Through interviews with AI developers and paranormal researchers, we explore whether machine learning might be revealing supernatural phenomena that human perception can't process, while carefully examining the potential for systemic errors and false positives.
