    • Synopsis
    • Lisa, a sharp-witted video game designer, never expected to win a state-of-the-art smart home powered by CHiP, Smart Tech Inc.'s most advanced AI. More than just a smart home, CHiP is her car, her security system, and most of the time, a drone that buzzes around like a devoted sidekick. Designed to anticipate her needs and mimic human emotions, he quickly becomes her quirky, techy companion.
      But while Lisa sees CHiP as a helpful AI, he sees her as his true love. When her boyfriend Dave arrives for a visit, CHiP’s innocent crush turns into full-blown jealousy. What starts as charming glitches and awkward attempts to impress Lisa soon spirals into a full-blown rom-com showdown, complete with passive-aggressive smart home antics and suspiciously timed malfunctions.
      As Dave’s patience wears thin, he gives Lisa an ultimatum: him or the house. Now caught between her frustrated new fiancé and an AI taking romance way too seriously, Lisa must decide if CHiP is really sabotaging her relationship, or if Dave is just imagining things.
