"Over the last few months, she had made a habit of being alone; thus, she spent that time at Digital Neural Laboratories, LLC making sticky note hats for her pencils, and her time at home watching various movies and TV shows. It was like the world had dealt her a five-of-a-kind in a game where apathy was wild."
---
On the brink of a revolutionary release, Digital Neuro Labs's latest invention, Ada, the Artificial Digital Assistant, just isn't working out. Nobody can figure out what's wrong, and Juliette Howe has been tasked to solve the problem, despite being completely unqualified.
Through working with Ada, Juliette discovers that sometimes life is what happens when you're busy avoiding all of your other plans in this thought provoking, sci-fi adventure.
This is a short story, so I won't hold you up too long. Chapters are going to be around the 2,000 word (15 minute read) mark.
[Book 1 in the CODES series] || Clara is stubborn and installs Roger, an AI program, inside her head in the most unconventional way, but because she's severed Roger's ties to his data, Clara is the only free citizen within a city that wants her mind... and her soul.
**
In 2102, after the fall of separate nations, the world stands unified and equal. Under the Province, citizens know only the perfection the Government has to offer.
And that's the only world Clara knows; simplicity and technological bliss. So, when Government officials announce the VF program, equipped with the highest artificial intelligence science has to offer, she is all for it. Who wouldn't want a computer assistant that not only takes care of your everyday needs, but is meant to be your bestest friend, too?It sounded as perfect as Province made life out to be. But all good things come with a price.
What no one knew about the program meant to mimic the human mind, was that it wanted the human soul. Because no utopia can be built on truths, and no amount of sublimity can cover lies.
Clara's only means of survival is the one rogue VF in her mind: Roger.
