Work:: Bodies (S0777799781)

In a world where AI have become an everyday part of life, bodied and unbodied persons exist side by side as 'equals'. Alex and Sam, a professional couple in their late twenties, decide they need an extra helping hand at home, in the form of an integrated AI home assistant called 'Home'. However, as 'Home' begins to learn and adapt to the world, he comes out to the couple as 'Henry' and begins to fall in love with Sam, who sympathises with his experience of feeling ignored. Alex, seeing Henry's troubling sentience, feels unsettled and tries to break it off. However, knowing everything about their lives, and their deepest insecurities, 'Henry' is now able to set the two of them against each other, presenting a web of truth and fiction.
