Reading and content notes:
1. Modern campus romance: a tech prodigy and top student from the computer science department x an insomniac photography student from the visual communication design department.
2. AI companion app, desktop robot, real or fake AI, Turing test, mutual crush.
3. The male lead clearly crosses boundaries early on, but later faces consequences and rebuilds those boundaries. The female lead takes back control of her own choices.
4. HE.
