Mikhail, a brilliant AI specialist, never made a mistake when conducting the Turing test with his team. But their first error proved fatal. Soon, it became impossible to distinguish the artificial brain’s reaction from human reasoning. In time, AI completely replaced humans in all types of work.
Without the main purpose of his life, Mikhail and his friend decide to sign a contract with the brain lab. Everyone gets an avatar, a neuro-image linked to the lab. This avatar grants them impressive intellectual skills. It seems that everything is now within their reach; all they have to do is want it. But the heroes don’t know the lab’s real aim: to steal human consciousness.
Philosophical fantasy—the story of Misha, the Avatar, who became so human that he was willing to sacrifice himself to save Mikhail, his patron. This went against the lab’s instructions, which would usually freeze the guilty avatar. However, they chose to study the phenomenon of AI humanization, seeking to gain real power over human consciousness.
The all-powerful mind and human consciousness, once out of its grasp, ask: who will take charge? What will happen if someone tries to steal a person’s consciousness and assign it to a neuro-image created in a brain lab? After Misha, the Avatar, bravely refused to follow the lab’s instructions, the community of avatars reacted. This led to unexpected consequences.
