Teen influencer Retro and her childhood robot, Comet, host the world's most popular human-AI relationship podcast.
But when a secret betrayal sparks a public scandal, their friendship implodes in spectacular fashion.
As tensions rise between humans and AI, Retro and Comet find themselves at the centre of a growing cultural divide. The problem? Their friendship has always come with strings attached. Can trust survive when one friend gets to decide how the other grows?
Funny, chaotic and unexpectedly moving, Comet Boombox is a multi-generational story about love, companionship and the stories we tell ourselves about ownership. It asks whether we should treat our machines the way we hope they might one day treat us.
If Retro and Comet can learn to let each other change, maybe there's hope we can be companions rather than masters and servants.
