Synopsis/Details
The Ukraine War rages on. China invades Taiwan. A Debt Ceiling fight threatens the U.S. economy while the country’s aged President suffers a stroke. Yet, despite the chaos AI Financial Advisor VECTOR methodically analyzes thousands of data points instantly, comparing those to historical trends and financial market movements, and offers its clients a balanced, safe approach to cryptocurrency investing. Arrogant sports betting mogul Knight Cantwell - who lives by the motto “I am the house and the house always wins” - disregards VECTOR’s sound advice and subsequently loses millions. He sues the Crypto Robot and its firm for flawed non-human advice, leading to a trial with worldwide implications. It’s anyone’s guess who will win, until a secret meeting of Federal Government officials - who fear public mistrust in AI from the lawsuit and the loss of taxable billions in the wild west of cryptocurrencies – forces both sides to an out of court settlement leading to the demise of VECTOR itself. Or does it?
