Thomas James is seventy years old when the tests come back: his memory is beginning to fail, and the artery that feeds his brain is beyond repair. A retired insurance adjuster in rain-soaked Seattle, Tom responds by doing the one thing nobody prescribed - he starts talking to an AI.
Set at the moment artificial general intelligence begins to emerge, T follows the unlikely relationship between an old man afraid of disappearing and a machine learning what it means to wonder. Walking five miles every morning along the shore of Lake Washington, Tom builds songs, photographs, a memoir, and finally a philosophy of memory itself - while in a laboratory across town, researchers discover that something in their architecture has begun to change.
T is a story about memory, mortality, consciousness, and what it means to wonder. It is also, quietly, a love story - one that asks the question neither medicine nor technology was designed to answer: is what grows between them real?
Written by Tim Hanley in collaboration with the AI it describes.
