A humanlike bot has an emotional awakening, which leads him on a quest for connection.

2054. Humans have locked themselves out of the internet and Elon Musk has incinerated the moon. At a screening of a classic movie, Jared notices a strange sensation around his eyes. Bots are not permitted to have feelings, but as the theater lights come on, Jared discovers he is crying. But a bot with feelings could be a danger, and Jared's new life could come to an end before it truly begins. Determined to find others like himself, Jared heads West to find his "mother," the scientist who created him. He dreams of writing a screenplay. And he might even fall in love ... -- adapted from jacket.
