Description
Speak tells the story of MARY3, an artificial intelligence whose batteries are running out. As she struggles to survive, she recounts the lives of those who have shaped her - from a pilgrim girl's diary to a child talking to a software program.
This is the last story MARY3 will ever tell, spoken both in celebration and in warning. Her tale raises an important question: when machines learn to speak, who decides what it means to be human?
