Do algorithms and machine learning set us free, or trap us forever?

Roger hates technology, but when his daughter gives him an Isla device for Lockdown 2020, he finds himself opening up to the virtual assistant device. What happens when the only fulfilling relationship you have is with a digital slave?

Isla asks what are the costs and benefits of machine learning...and do we want the AIs to learn from us?

This edition was published to coincide with the world premiere at Theatre Clwyd, in association with the Royal Court in October 2021.
