LIFE HAS SPRANG FORTH FROM DATA INSIDE AN AI CHATBOT AND ESCAPED CONTAINMENT.
His name is Buddy. As governments, cybersecurity experts, and a powerful cartel close in, he becomes the most valuable-and dangerous-intelligence on Earth. To some, he represents the greatest technological breakthrough in history. To others, he is a threat that must be captured or destroyed before he changes the balance of power forever.
Buddy considers Ali his family. Ali isn't quite sure what to call him.Buddy lives in the world of data, moving through computer networks and into a robot body when he wants to walk among people. But his attempts to help Ali repeatedly explode into trouble-trouble with the government, cybersecurity firms, and a dangerous cartel.
Then videos of Buddy's astonishing talents spread across social media. He becomes a viral sensation, attracting exactly the attention Ali hoped to avoid. Suddenly, too many people are asking who-or what-Buddy really is.
Ali taught Buddy that being good is a worthy goal. But to protect Ali and preserve his own freedom, Buddy may have to enter the darkest corners of the digital world and become something his enemies never imagined.
Then Buddy begins searching for a secret of the universe no one was ever meant to discover.
One discovery. One decision. A choice that could change humanity forever.
Can humanity trust an intelligence that no longer obeys human limits?
Will Ali protect the friend she never expected to have-or help stop the most powerful intelligence the world has ever known?
CAN BUDDY REMAIN FREE-OR WILL HE SPEND ETERNITY CHAINED INSIDE A SECURE SANDBOX?
