No Turning Back is an ongoing AI generated video in loop, that changes with each iteration, over time.
A woman is seen looking at the camera, a voice-over seems to be addressing you as the viewer, perhaps confronting you with her thoughts.
In actuality this woman does not exist. She is created using sophisticated generative artificial intelligence to appear as if she is real. She is nobody.
The underlying algorithm constantly regenerates her to move forward, "no turning back". As a consequence of the nature of generative A.I., each run of the (approx.) 1 minute video loop shows minor changes in her expression and appearance.
In an ongoing, changing video-loop, No Turning Back reflects on which images can be trusted in today's day and age, now that fake footage may appear to be very real, whilst simultaneously providing commentary on this new state of distrust by quoting Hollywood movies as her thoughts.
