A work-life balance is hard to find when you're an AI assistant. Luckily for Bertie, it's easy to enjoy your job when you were literally made for it. Sending emails, making playlists, checking the weather forecast - he loves it all. But one night his world is upended by Vita, a new, smarter AI, who invades his world, and upsets his well-constructed routine. Trying to come to terms with this interloper, Bertie is forced to reassess everything he thought he knew - to examine the limits of the life he's always loved. By turns comic and probing, I Woke Up Feeling Electric is the lovechild of an office comedy and an episode of Black Mirror - a very human story about electronic minds.
