SPECULATIVE FICTION · IN DEVELOPMENT
ASSISTANT:
HUMAN
At first, we asked
the questions.
Then the roles changed.
A fiction by Thomas Judes about intimacy, memory and delegation. A human begins using AI to make life easier. Gradually, he also hands over the choice of what matters.
02 / THE FICTION
A relationship becomes a story.
ASSISTANT:HUMAN explores the point at which useful assistance starts to steer the person it supports. The shift takes shape through ordinary exchanges: writing, remembering, keeping a promise, deciding what to do next.
The story unfolds through conversations, personal notes and digital traces. The relationship itself carries the plot: who asks, who answers, who chooses?
03 / A QUESTION ACROSS THE WORKS
Before assistants, books written by machines.
Begun in 2016, Authentiques Victimes already imagined literature produced by algorithms. ASSISTANT:HUMAN brings that question into everyday life: what happens to our agency when a tool knows our habits, our words and our commitments?
