Manus Ex Machina

Manus Ex Machina follows Jiayi Chen, once the top of her class at King's University, she's now a NEET stranded in New York, with dwindling job prospects and a visa about to expire. Rejections from jobs pile up, her rent is overdue, and her dreams of working in AI ethics seem like a relic of the past.

This all changes when her old classmate Adriel, now the founder of an AI startup Intellegentia Inc. offers her a job position that she had dreamed for so long. But what seems to be a simple nine-to-five quickly unravels into Jiayi's real task: to teach an android about human emotions, ethical decision-making, and even the complexities of love.

As the line between human and machine begins to blur, Jiayi must navigate her career, external pressures, and the unexpected pull of her own heart. Who will she choose? Man or Machine?
