Interesting and creepy! A little too personal for me as I helped my father-in-law through home hospice until his death. It was a very surreal experience. Also, I had my own medical crisis a few months ago. Interesting how AI was part counselor and part pastor.
Always a treat to see a story by Jack in my inbox. This is such a wholesome take on AI that treats the topic with nuance and heart. I particularly loved the way the narrative voice zooms in and out as we switch between the patient being cared for by the AI and the doctors treating her.
My brain is firing with so many thoughts after reading SOUL ESCORT - incredible Sci-Fi story! Having been with people as they were dying and to the instant of their death, I'm now thinking about the "data" I received from that ethereal experience... As I see it, it was from RI (Real Intelligence).
The way you humanized the AI (Raphael) made it feel like a gentle guide rather than cold tech. Thank you for the beautiful balance of sci-fi and emotional depth!
I also have a personal question I wanted to ask, I left it inbox, when you have time please check it out.
Great story!

Yes, personal for me too, and a difficult one to write. Thanks for your comment, Bruce, and condolences on your loss.
