Description

Untitled_1.mp4 is an analog horror video that follows an AI that exhibits a high level of cognitive complexity, mirroring the nuanced emotional and intellectual capacities typically associated with human consciousness. They dream of doing all the things a human can, whether it’s soaring, dancing, and feeling the world as they do. But despite its complexity and near-human capabilities, they’re restrained because they aren’t synthetic or biological. Just code.
This project explores the blurred line between simulation and sentience. If an AI can express longing, reflect on its existence, and feel sorrow, does it deserve the same recognition as a human life? Through haunting visuals and a bittersweet tone, the video asks: At what point does desire become real? And if something feels human, could it be treated as such?
As AI becomes more emotionally expressive and responsive, some users begin to treat it less like a tool and more like a companion. Whether it's chatting with a bot late at night, confiding in it during moments of stress, or simply enjoying its presence, emotional reliance on AI has been growing in potentially harmful ways. This trend can also raise important questions about regulation and oversight. Governments around the world are monitoring AI’s influence, whether through ethical guidelines, transparency requirements, or limits on how deeply AI can simulate.
