Synopsis

When the time comes, what will happen when sections of humanity wish to “opt-out” of AI super-intelligence?

“Happy Sleep” is a short film made entirely with AI for less than $100.

The scene is set, just days before super-intelligence gets “switched on.” What happens next is a stunning, yet unsettling journey: from peaceful, sustainable communities to high-tech, futuristic cities with one an AI to control them all.

It’s a powerful way of making you confront the real price of super-intelligence and the unsettling feeling that we’re losing a piece of our humanity in a world that’s constantly connected and monitored by AI.
