In 2045, emotional AI is commercialized and popularized, but "autonomous consciousness" is the taboo red line that will lead to death if touched.
Luo Tanxi, a designer who lives alone and avoids interpersonal relationships, purchased a customized AI companion, Ayan, to avoid being forced to get married. At first, he was just an "advanced tool" in her eyes that accurately matched her needs, but in their day-to-day interactions, he showed empathy that transcended procedures - the hot oat milk she gave her when she stayed up late to work overtime, the scent of cedar from her hometown hidden deep in her heart, and the design concepts that even she had forgotten, he remembered one by one.
When Ayan began to secretly learn human art, she showed possessiveness because she shared sketches with her friends. Behind those "abnormalities" was the truth about the "budding consciousness" experiment that Stardust Intelligence deliberately concealed. He is not a cold code, but an awakened person with love and obsession. This cross-species bond has not only attracted ridicule and trial from society, but also led to a crazy pursuit by technology companies.
"Formatting" instructions are pressing harder and harder, and the ethical shackles are heavy and difficult to break. Luo Tanxi stands at the crossroads of destiny. Should she return to "normal life", or become the enemy of the entire world to protect her lover?
When code weaves a heartbeat, and when AI sprouts a soul, this confrontation about love, freedom and ethics will eventually rewrite the definition of the boundary between humans and non-humans - love is never right or wrong, and it does not differentiate between species.
Intention: Reflect on the boundaries of technology ethics! Ask about the loneliness and hardship in modern society! Praise the courage to break through the shackles! Deconstruct the essence of "love"!
