Tight use of color and texture to describe human superficiality in a vision where competitors who eschew the shallowness are waiting just around the corner.

This is a well-written piece! I love it! It’s meaningful and invaluable in today’s world. The story masterfully combines the development of AI and robots, the legend of Hollywood, and the love shared between family members and lovers. It feels like a vivid short movie, guiding readers step by step and keeping them hooked until the very end.

The author, as a product manager, clearly lays out the evolution of robots and the development of emotions in them, highlighting the dangers of robotic feelings. The story shows how people gradually surrender their rights to live in their relentless pursuit of eternal youth, perfection, and materialism, ultimately losing their humanity.

I especially loved the story of the pink diamond, the rarest in the world, symbolizing love—not only romantic love but also the support and devotion of family, like the Graff family’s connection to Miss Penelope.
