Eliot Bessot embarks on a journey guided by artificial intelligence: every
decision he makes is dictated by ChatGPT. The adventure begins
above Interlaken (CH), at Harder Kulm, renowned for its panoramic
view. ChatGPT then takes him to Strasbourg (FR), where he stays. From
booking a room in a youth hostel to choosing dishes at a restaurant, all
his actions are validated by the AI—until his budget of CHF 250 runs out,
abruptly marking the end of the trip.
This short film, blending documentary and fiction, blurs the line between
the virtual and the real. It explores the question of artificial intelligence
with a poetic touch, a lightness tinged with gravity.
