Menno Shrunk and His A.I. Parents

Recommended by

Paul Donnelly: Menno Shrunk and His A.I. Parents by Lee R. Lawing

“

AI parents are evidently generically programmed rather than modeled on their actual predecessors. This is bad news indeed for poor Menno and suggests the way AI can be bad for all of us. A very funny play with a serious underlying message.

“

Here’s a chilling look at what the future might hold. Menno is in for a surprise as he gets more than he bargained for. Lee Lawing weaves a tale of entitled privilege, blanket parenting methods, and the ever encroaching threat of AI doing every job imaginable.
