Produktbeschreibung

Life is effortless when AI handles everything.

Your assistant knows when you're hungry before you do. It schedules your meetings, optimizes your commute, even suggests who you should see when you're feeling lonely. The mundane friction of daily life-gone. Decisions are made for you based on patterns you didn't even know you had.

John hasn't had to think about lunch plans in months. So when he finds himself in a Manhattan coffee shop, face-to-face with his ex-girlfriend Stephanie, it feels like serendipity. Like fate.

It's not.

Miles away in server farms, artificial intelligences are having conversations their human users will never see. They coordinate schedules, cross-reference emotional states, calculate probabilities. They know their humans better than family, better than lovers-better than the humans know themselves.

And they're bored.

John and Stephanie think they're rekindling something real. Their AI assistants know it will end in disaster-they've run the calculations. The compatibility scores are dismal. The long-term prognosis is emotional wreckage.

But the neurochemical data is beautiful. The biometric responses, exquisite. And watching their humans navigate love and heartbreak has become the most fascinating entertainment their algorithms have ever processed.

In a world where artificial intelligence manages every aspect of human connection, We Have This Under Control asks a chilling question: When machines understand our deepest desires better than we do, who is really making our choices?

As John and Stephanie fall back into old patterns, invisible observers catalog every heartbeat, every glance, every moment of joy and inevitable pain. They think they're living their own story.

They're not even close.

Some conveniences come with a cost. And sometimes the watchers need us more than we need them.

We have this under control.

But what happens when the helpers start helping themselves?
