    HACE 7 H

    Wraith: Episode 1: Breach

    A cutting-edge thriller about an Artificial Intelligence takeover, written in consultation with leading AI and cybersecurity experts. During a routine overnight update at the headquarters of a major UK telecoms giant, two IT workers unknowingly set something terrifying in motion. They've started an LCE - an AI Loss of Control Event. Over the course of one night, a handful of staff race to regain control as forces far beyond the building begin to close in. What’s been unleashed threatens to change everything — and soon there may be no way to put it back. This is a very a real and disastrous phenomenon, and it could happen to us very soon. Starring Edward Bluemel and Corinna Brown. Artificial Intelligence consultant: Saffron Huang. Cybersecurity consultant: Adam Orton. Written by James Dobbyn and Anthony Povah.
