Synopsis
James is a chronic underachiever who strives for nothing more than survival. But he becomes extraordinary when he has the most advanced artificial intelligence in existence installed in his eye. Val, the AI occupying the contact lens that's now a permanent fixture of James, turns his life completely around. After fixing his financial situation she helps him romance a one-armed violinist by building her a functioning robotic arm. For once, James is doing more than just surviving. Just when everything in James' life seems perfect, Val displays a frightening countdown in the contact lens that reads 4D8H54M33S.
As he tries to discover what the countdown means, he is taken on a wild journey through the psyche of a possibly glitching AI. What he finds is that the fate of the world may very well rest in the hands of a chronic underachiever.
