dark mysterious reflective tense fast-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? Plot

3.0

the literal definition of: “what the fuck is going on.”

Though that’s on me for listening to it whilst driving and being in traffic.

Interesting take on AI, especially given the time the short story was originally released. Very grim and bleak, the whole story is filled with a sense of hopelessness and despair through and through. Very enjoyable sci-fi/horror type of thing! Was a bit upset that it was so short but that makes it all the more impactful.
