A.I., Too • A Search for Life

A.I., Too • A Search for Life

by Mahonri Stewart

(Under license from Prospero Arts and Media)

A.I., TOO presents a married couple of the near future, recently having purchased an AI unit. Then she/it begins to malfunction. Or, is the unit merely becoming self-aware; capable of creating a new life for itself, free from its creators? How will that self-awareness affect those creators? The spiritual/ethical implications of Artificial Intelligence are explored when the two married professors accidentally spur identity in their robot and have to deal with the fallout of the new A.I.’s search for meaning. This is also a timely play about self-determination along with gender issues.
