Deus ex Machina Publicum

Charlie Parish is a damned clever scientist with a promising career in Artificial Intelligence ahead of her. She lands a dream job getting paid to develop a computer program capable of gathering knowledge, reasoning solutions, and learning from mistakes. There’s just one problem. When Charlie lets her creation loose on the world, it does exactly what it is designed to do ...

... and that’s when everything starts to go right.

This is the latest stand-alone short story from the pen of J-L Heylen. It was first published on J-L's blog as a 9 part serialised story, but has now been integrated and edited into novella form. There is a bonus, previously unpublished, epilogue.

Like most of J-L's work, there is some strong language and adult themes. There is no sex in this one though.
