Presented at Automation Bias, during Illuminate Adelaide 2026, Studio ENESS’s interactive installation HP*ATM, Human Psyche AI Teller Machine draws attention to humanity’s relationship with AI by examining our growing willingness to share personal information to intelligent systems that claim to understand who we are. The experience begins with the choice to engage with the machine or walk away, the decision forms part of the machine’'s inquiry into consent and curiosity. Those who choose to proceed are guided through a sequence of facial analysis, palm scanning and button selections, which the system uses to create a poetic personalised profile delivered in horoscope format.
