I, Herself

Sahar Baniabbasi (IR)

I, Herself is a short animated film created by Sahar Baniabbasi that focuses on over-reliance on AI. The story follows the main character, who stumbles upon a mobile advertisement for a Robohelper who can assist her throughout her daily life: an AI maid of sorts.

Going through a rough time in her life, she does not hesitate before making the purchase: it is just too good an offer to pass up. Little does she know that one tap on her screen is about to change her entire life. The film aims to show the positive aspects of AI, while also warning the viewers of the possible negative outcomes if one becomes overly dependent on it.
