Summer Frost by Blake Crouch
4.0

This was my fifth read from the Forward collection. They are all short stories which fall under the science fiction genre of writing. Summer Frost examines just how humane Artificial Intelligence can become. Riley, a programmer, starts to form a relationship with Max, an AI product she helped create. However, as in many stories of AI, there are ethical questions asked about the ability AI should have and what happens when AI is able to escape its artificial confines. This was one of my favorite reads from the Forward collection and I am continued to be impressed with the work of Blake Crouch.
