I was raving to a producer friend this weekend about #TheArtificeGirl movie starring Tatum Matthews, who does an amazing job portraying an AI character developed to lure and capture online predators.
Turns out my friend, a producer of the CW's #TheWaltons series, knows Tatum because she plays Erin Walton on his show! Small world.
Especially if you're interested in AI and AI-based tools, I think you'll enjoy this tense little sci-fi film. Recommended!

"'Now my personal feeling is that Earl Hamner Jr. remembered so much about his Virginia boyhood when he was remembering about "The Waltons," that there had been one thing he forgot,' he said. 'And that one thing is the cats.'"
