*****4.5***** It was awesome! I enjoyed it very much. We always think what will happen if an A.I. being is created, would it be boon or the opposite. It's unknown we will never know until it happens. But that plot is on sideline. The main plot line is about Auto the A.I. and him coming in this world and adapting. I liked it and my fav was Auto bi. You will know why once you read it. And the book is free right now if you didn't know. So go check it out!
Inline Comment He accused me of not valuing life, but he showed clear disregard for mine. Yup dude Auto is right.
I loved this story. I began to feel a kindredness with the AI Auto and that is the magic of Cavanaugh's prose. Auto is an emotional roller coaster through the depths of cyberspace and code. Give this author a few mins and she'll have you hooked. ***spoiler*** Each rendition of Auto, Auto Bi, and Auto Tri have distinct personalities to me that is the best part of the story...meeting each AI and seeing their divergence.
