Enjoyed this. Great piece of writing that seems frighteningly likely for our future. Good job.

This is a hell of a story. I understood the idea of "the replacement" and I feel like the characters are real and insightful. Nice piece of science fiction. It's well-written. It's interesting. Kudos to the author!
