Cardinal Thomas is a priest and religious dignitary summoned by Dylan, a tech visionary, to meet his newest creation. He's asked to put on special glasses and go into a glass room, where he meets Ari, an A.I. creation that takes the shape of a young woman. Cardinal Thomas is against artificial intelligence and doesn't understand why he's there. But when Ari proclaims she is a Christian, the cardinal is skeptical but intrigued.
