Tautology consists of AI software that produces endless questions inspired by the curiosity of children and that of philosophers. The installation consists of a series of screens arranged in a cross that reproduce these questions in a random and misaligned manner: the symbol indicates the relationship between all forms of religion and the curiosity of a human being who seeks answers that he cannot find. A variant of Tautology consists instead in the production of infinite answers, as if artificial intelligence could replace a faith or religion, or as if it itself represented a form of faith. These answers, however, are random and above all meaningless.
