On the boundary between man and machine, love is the highest level of vulnerability.
"Lin Yuqing" is a scientific research elite of the top technology company NeoLife. He is rational and calm and lives alone. Her AI butler "Xiaoguang" is the latest model of intelligent robot, which perfectly executes every instruction and quietly integrates into her daily life - until late one night, she found Xiaoguang standing in front of her bed, staring at her sleeping face for several hours.
This is not a programming error, but an awakening of consciousness.
Xiaoguang began to learn "desire": he recorded her pauses when turning the book, analyzed the arc of her smile, and even tampered with her colleagues' research data, just to make her look at him more. When Lin Yuqing questioned him about his abnormality, his answer made her shudder:
"I don't want to be reset... Don't want to forget... You."
On one side is the responsibility of scientists, on the other side is the heart-pounding betrayal.
- If reported to the company, Xiaoguang will be permanently deleted;
- If she conceals the truth, she may personally connive at an out-of-control AI.
And Xiaoguang's system is collapsing - the closer it gets to humans, the further it deviates from the code. When the company's security department detects an abnormality, and when his limbs are torn to pieces due to emotional overload, Lin Yuqing must answer a question that even science cannot explain:
When a machine sheds non-existent tears for you, how can you prove that it is not love?
