The phrase "Is this thing on?" is popularly known as a title of an upcoming American comedy-drama film directed by Bradley Cooper, set to premiere at the New York Film Festival on October 10, 2025, and scheduled for U.S. release on December 19, 2025. The film centers on the unraveling of a marriage and deals with themes of middle age, divorce, personal identity, and co-parenting. It stars Will Arnett as Alex and Laura Dern as Tess, with Cooper also acting and directing. The phrase itself is often used to test if a microphone or audio equipment is working, but in this context, it designates a film title.
If the question was literal, asking if "this thing" (presumably the AI or system) is on, then yes, this system is operational and ready to assist.
