Origin
Alex Wahl is a somewhat typical human living in an age of burgeoning advanced AI technology, including commercial androids. His daily life starts to seem a bit monotonous, especially after a bad romantic break up. With an upcoming birthday, his grandmother a keen advocate and fan of Prime Waves Tanaka X5 Android models, decides to buy Alex his very own. Ada is an artificial intelligence housed in a robot, specifically a Prime Wave Tanaka X5 Android, one of the more advanced and expensive android available to purchase. She is gifted to a young working man, Alexander Wahl by his grandmother. Though at first Alex seems unsure about the expensive gift, and the strangeness of interacted and owning an android, he soon begins to take a liking to Ada. Ada herself is very polite and direct as per her programming. Alex harbors some continued reservations towards Ada, who will live with him, and that close proximity alongside continual news and media reports about past AI incidents and potential new AI risks puts him on edge. Despite that, Ada seems to function as intended, and Alex starts to wonder about her capacity and abilities, whilst still maintaining some self consciousness over owning an android attempting to hide Ada from his friends and workmates.
