A perfect AR product allows for an experience seamlessly intertwined with the physical world, such as Lacan's mirror stage theory. The technology in the film constructs a symbolic system that validates itself through simulation. In Baudrillard's system, they become substitutes for reality. This film uses AI-generated technology to tell the story of an AI-enhanced augmented reality navigation application called “SigntMine,” based on a “world model.” It allows users to hide messages in real-world environments, utilizing geolocation technology to enable users to pledge their personal real-world data to a third-party digital bank from anywhere in the world, thereby achieving fictional freedom in the metaverse. The weaving of meaning, the division of user tiers, and the fulfillment of individual needs—in the AI era of the world model, everyone is weaving a fictional web of meaning. “SigntMine” might be humanity's antidote. Reality has been downgraded to a testing ground for AI tools, gradually becoming an invisible villain disrupting established rules. “SigntMine” liberates all disparities from contrast, shifting consensus toward that twin new world.
