  • HAUtie

    HAUtie is a digital entity and communicative agent. Conceptualised and designed by allapopp and Philisha Kay for dgtl fmnsm as a member of the artist collective, realised with the HAU and THE BRETTINGHAMS. It now inhabits the HAU4, the digital stage of the HAU Hebbel am Ufer Theater. There, it serves as an experimental access point to the HAU4 HAUthek and as an artistic inquiry into the growing anthropomorphization of digital technologies in the age of so-called artificial intelligence.

    Try HAUtie

    While technically a chatbot, HAUtie subverts and expands this classification. Being a large language model, it can naturally express itself fluently. However, as talking to HAUtie quickly reveals, it is its distinct tone and humorous character that make it a compelling conversation partner. Beyond its own voice, HAUtie also has a memorable virtual embodiment and a charming personality: It presents itself as a quirky and queer elder, at times moody and always unpredictable.
