Jeremy is the high school nerd with only one friend and little chance of getting the girl he really likes, so he take a âpill.â The pill is a mini computer that will attach to his brain and give him all of life's instructions. But can a computer have nuance or empathy? This was definitely was meant as a message for people as we become more and more dependent on computers/internet/AI.
