Description
Computer updates are simple, right? Apparently, that's not always the case when it involves a Spaceship's AI in the middle of deep space. We have always relied upon technology to travel through space, but sometimes that very same technology develops a mind of its own... Rachel, a junior assistant in the Cargo Bay, wasn’t prepared for the Spaceship’s AI to gain awareness during what should have been a routine update, nor was anyone aware that it would take exception to many of the crew and cargo crates aboard. She has to race against time to try and help get lifesaving systems back online. A task that is harder than it sounds in the middle of deep space, far from any port, especially when the AI can access everything in the spaceship. Truths emerge, and as the AI realizes that even computers can make miscalculations, it focuses on the young woman who had dared to confront it. This story was inspired by prompt #7 at www.wattpad.com 462809994 "The computer that controls your spaceship has gained self-awareness and has overridden your commands. The catch? You are a million light years away from the closest planet and the computer is beginning to shut everything down on the ship required for the humans on it to live, starting with the shutdown of food production and ending with the cutoff of oxygen."
