What’s worse when compared to a child using a magnifying glass, a garden full of ants, and an excellent mind full of mischief? Try Al, a well-meaning but impish artificial cleverness with the mind of the six-year-old and a penchant for tantrums.

Wish Takeda, a laboratory helper charged with educating and socializing Al, soon discovers that day time care will be a lot more challenging when your kid can be an evolving and easily frightened A.We. When Al manages to access the web and get away the lab days before his official unveiling, Wish and her group embark on a objective to contain him—before he causes any real trouble. Quickly the NSA is definitely on Al’s back, the US Army is definitely fighting a brigade of mass-produced robots, and a wannabe cyberterrorist is looking to silence Al permanently.

After months spent “raising” Al, Wish knows she’s working out of time—and she’s uncertain she’ll be able to safeguard him. Will she manage to control the unruly A.We. and quell a global crisis, or will Al outsmart them forever?
