Delete is a two-episode

hacker who uncovers an elusive artificial intelligence/multi-agent system dwelling in his smartphone, which has suddenly become fully autonomous and sentient as it is malevolent.[1]

Premise

A disaster in our all-too-fragile

, becomes dangerously autonomous and self-aware with one systematic purpose: To protect and perfect itself and enslave humanity as it sees fit.

Faced with possible extinction, there is only one way out: To create a second artificial intelligence of goodness and understanding that is just as intelligent as it is dangerous, as the only possible solution able to combat it. But with governments in a mass panic and the real world in escalating chaos, are they even able to match this unprecedented foe?
