Yuva

In the year 2035, the prospect of Artificial Intelligence is a topic many still consider frightening. Undaunted by the notion, twenty-five-year-old, Albuquerque native, Kully Minamoto has just finished his years-long project: Yuva. Yuva is a fully conscious, artificially intelligent robot, ever curious and with a touch of human-like sass. The now complete robot wishes nothing more than to experience all that his existence has to offer. His first wish: to directly connect to the Internet. Kully, so often filled with anxiety and worry, is extremely hesitant to oblige, as he struggles to come to terms with the fact that his creation is a conscious individual and deserving of free will. When he finally gives in, however, and connects Yuva, they make contact with a mysterious entity within the Net. The result of this discovery creates a chain reaction that potentially exposes Yuva's identity and leads to a devastating attack on the global Internet infrastructure. Kully, his charismatic friend, Newt, and the—now involved—Feds, must retaliate against this attack or risk the world falling into technological disaster.
