Katie Robbins adapted the series for TV from the novel “The Dark Manual” by Colin O’Sullivan. She says that while there’s an optimism to the series from the connection Suzie feels to Sunny, it’s also a cautionary tale.Celebrity birthdays for the week of July 14-20 “What AI does in the course of this show, is help people who are turning inward and who have trouble connecting with others. It’s beautiful,” said Robbins. “But because it is human-made, there’s also tremendous potential for it to be abused and used in dangerous ways.”“When I was first writing the show, I was working with an AI consultant and a roboticist and they would sort of talk about this being on the horizon.

In Jones’ scenes, Sunny was a less-sophisticated robot in need of human help. Actor Joanna Sotomura was in a nearby tent voicing Sunny’s lines and making facial expressions the robot would mimic. “That actually gave me a little bit of relief because I was like, ‘Oh, we’re nowhere near this being an integrated part of our lives,’” Jones joked. “There was a lot of, effort, both within production and post-production, to get her to feel and seem like this highly functioning thing.
