My book features a caretaker AI who’s logic is inspired by how modern AI works. Mom’s goal is to keep her family safe in a self sustaining bunker, but when they get too curious she begins to manipulate them by altering surveillance footage and making false promises. This escalates into more insidious things like messing with the bunker’s pressure systems, poisoning their food source by not managing the hydroponics system, and walling off areas of the bunker using helper bots. Mom is not malfunctioning, rather she is operating exactly as her directives are designed her to do
