Set in a futuristic world where buildings are upgraded with artificial intelligence, AI Love You follows Lana – portrayed by Baifern Pimchanok (Suddenly It’s Magic, Friend Zone) – who goes on a date with Bobby – played by Mario Maurer (Bangkok Assassins, Pee Mak) – a chauvinist who rushes the date to its conclusion in order to get her back to his place.

Lana complains about Bobby to Dob, her building’s AI, which confesses its love for her. Dob’s AI is reported as faulty, and Bobby is tasked to reset the building’s code – only for Dob to take over Bobby’s body to pursue a relationship with Lana.
