This intriguing piece of science fiction explores the ever-increasing presence of artificial intelligence in our daily lives. Can we predict the outcomes, and do the inherent benefits actually pose a threat to our humanity?
The characters:
Marjorie: age - 80's, strong-willed, feisty, struggling with memory issues
Tess: age - 50's, Marjorie's daughter, smart, restless, at major crossroads in her life, struggling with family issues and disappointments
Jon: age - 50's,Tess's husband, kind and caring, holding the family together
Walter: age - around 30, a mystery man, "looks like a young career man from 1998 . . . bright-eyed and handsome in an unspectacular way"
