Do any of you understand this manga at all?

Kinda

It will turn out that Ai is A.I. after all, lame.

oh, new ch up. Thanks.

So Inaba and the old man (the original Makoto?) are the only people left on Earth who haven't just slid into VR Comas? And machines are just keeping everything running after humanity has mentally checked out?

It feels like The Matrix and the old man in wheelchair is like the Architect

Inaba might not be entirely human.

Inaba is clearly a machine.

Old man is in the real Earth. There is a stimulation within a stimulation going on with a sick Ai in the hospital and a healthy Ai in college. Perhaps, this is how a high tech dystopia rehabs old people, letting them live alternate lives before they die...think VR Chat but more like Grand Theft Auto and Sim City combined

He called it a temporary isolation space. The city is an experiment run separately from the main show.

We got some soft Yukki comforting.

yeah I suppose so. I wonder what "her own research" is.

Honestly, I kinda think Yukiko is an AI, the wording in the chapter was kind of weird in this chapter and it never acknowledges her as human. They said they were the last two intelligent beings, not two last intelligent humans. The old man also wants humanity to control their own fate but refuses to work together with Yukiko, which would only have a point if she is a machine. Third she considers what happened to humanity as just a new path to follow, so she is siding with machines,

Plus the part that he mentions that recently machines learned emotions, which might be what differentiates Yukiko from other machines that are not "intelligent beings". And most important, Yukiko is too sexy and perfect to just be a human.

It also confirmed that Makoto stops being gay when he gets older.

So does Yukiko it seems.

Well, Yukiko inside obviously knows nothing about Yukiko outside.

The "Ai" they were looking for was inside them all along.

They were after the same "Ai" too.
Pottery.

or this also isn't the real world, but the outermost simulation.

Since she the only other thinking being left It would make her not just any AI but THE AI. Or perhaps the next step in the evolution of both, she is AI with a human body and emotions.

Latex Suit Ai said MC would be compensated for what he just done. Old man said his research allowed to digitize emotions. There are old and powerful people implied to be hooked up to MC to get the thrill of his emotions. Old man just stated that he put MC in a virtual sandbox and MC needs to get the keys to get out of the virtual sandbox. Only 2 intelligent beings are left on Earth. Everyone gained digital immortality by leaving behind their physical bodies. Artificial intelligence replaced humanity and only 20 years ago, machines gained ability to feel emotion

Latex Suit Ai said Yukiko is some sex program...

I hate science fiction that shows old people with outdated old people care. In my opinion, science fiction that fails to depict old people with 6 packs and power armor is fucking bullshit

And they are both doing research. So Yukki is her avatar/research subject like MC is old man's.

Is the manga getting axed? Feels the author is revealing too much plot but I heard volume 1 and 2 had good sales. I feel if author made a romance shonen manga copying the Matrix, this manga could have lasted longer. The author had no experience with shonen manga though. He did a romance shot manga so perhaps a sci fi manga is harder than he thought?

Somebody is still farming...old man was eating salad and veggies so who are the truckers in this world? All robots too?

the ayys rewrite humans to suit their whims
or are they AIs

But the object of this research may be to have her find her own path. That may be the real world Inaba's research.

Probably. Machine farming and shipment isn't even farfetched.

Well it pretty much spells out that humans have nothing to do. I would guess not all AI is thinking self aware AI.

If I was a human in this manga, I would kill the old man. What is wrong with letting every human get to experience being the main character of their own virtual world?

I understand that it baited everyone in with Yukiko's Yukikos only to follow that with a continious stream of boring "plot"

Everytime Ai gets confessed too, she explodes. Is Love the final emotion machines have yet to understand and feel? Like her programming can't handle love?

Also, in that part the old guy calls humanity "we", while Yukiko just calls it "the humanity"

True, there are two scenarios here. Yukiko is the AI (it's effectively a hivemind, or at least a central control unit) or Yukiko is an AI that learned emotion. But the way the old man don't accept her plans make it seem like she isn't on the same wavelength as him, so it seems more likely that she is THE AI.

And if she is the one that is taking everything from humans (work, purpose, emotions) and the very last thing is love. But honestly, Ai can go any way. An AI that actually learned love and is being experimented by Yukiko, an Ai that can't handle love and explodes, a human.

My guess is that AIs still can't comprehend love.

Which is why Ai explodes when confessed to and what this whole project is for, to get AIs understand what love is. Love is important because it gives robots a purpose beyond serving humanity because even though they have emotions they don't really have anything to do other than take care of human vegetables and after all the humans finally die out they'll just stagnate and do nothing.
