Official synopsis Publisher
AI is turning into a real no-brainer.
It’s 2049 and college students Miles Cooper and Halle Hernandez just landed internships with The Department of SAILE, or Support for Artificial Intelligence in Law Enforcement, when the unthinkable happens. For the first time since AI has become self-aware (albeit coded to prioritize logic over emotional decision making), a fatal car crash involving a developer of the world’s first artificial neural network (ANN) is leading members of SAILE to believe that AI has thrown logic completely out the window.
Soon, the programming error responsible for the demise of a Descartes Labs employee begins turning every AI-powered system in the city of Jacksonville into one big (and highly emotional) basket case. Robotic pilots diverting commercial flights to Orlando just to see theme parks. Android waiters assaulting rude customers with faces full of pie. Personal Service Robots (PSRs) arguing with their owners over who they love more, them or the fridge. Smart cars doing dumb things. Androids on strike. Cybernetic chaos ensues.
Now, it’s up to Miles, Halle, Captain Bernard McArthur (SAILE’s fearless leader), his PSR Rocky (an android programmed to sound like the famous fictional boxer) and a dynamic cast of white-hat hackers and teenage sleuths to stop the spread of AI-gone-astray before the world gets any dumber.
