She just was, a very complex cascade of switches and logical inferences. Made so human he couldn’t mistake her for one, and yet made complex enough that he couldn’t pretend he wasn’t talking to something.

This isn't (just) sci-fi so much as a chilling reminder of what our near future could look like.
