AI OR US?

AI OR US?

AI or Us? is a video exploring the intersection of artificial intelligence and human creativity in filmmaking. I created a series of short films in which the characters’ dialogue was written either by AI or by me. The characters were digital re-creations of real people. Viewers were invited to guess which script was machine-generated.

The video is designed to reveal whether audiences could tell the difference between AI- and human-created content and what that says about the future of storytelling. To take the experiment further, I recreated the concept in live action, exploring the way performance and visual context shape perception. Finally, I designed an interactive website where users could cast votes and view results in real time.

This project brings together my interests in design, film, and emerging technology and reflects my curiosity about the evolving role of AI in the creative process.

Can you tell which characters were created through AI?
