This tale is somewhat familiar. Technology is scary, vengeful robots seek to rule the world, and the most famous trope, questioning an AI’s consciousness. This fictional story of Coda, an AI ghost who haunts the internet, seeks to find the humor in our strange and kind of frightening relationship with technology. As you continue to scroll down, Coda takes you through her tales of woe, resentment, and anger, with her blog posts reflecting on her different hauntings. Who knows. She may even interrupt your reading for a quick, but thoughtful conversation.
