I didn't finish it, but it starts nicely. I'll commit to read the full thing.

Getting tired of AI fanfic. No thanks.
karmakurtisaani•12m ago
It seems well written and interesting.. but not quite interesting enough to drop everything and commit to an hour to read it just now.

It's not AI fanfic. It seems well written, and can be considered a novella. Flies close to what I have read in the past. I'll give it proper time to read it.

Is this basically the real story about Facebook, but fitted into some AI context to make it more exciting?

That's at least how it begins.

I'll maybe read some more of it in the evening...
