Trevers becomes alarmed, but Luccee appears content with the eviction and defies the eviction protocol by packing up swiftly and escaping in a stolen Mini.Ship. During a night out with her brother Trevers and his robot girlfriend Sal.ee, she receives a notification of her impending eviction. Unlike her brother and others, Luccee raised many concerns about what was happening and refused to accept the way things were. Friendship was no longer seen as a nuanced natural process but as a forced action that, if shunned, rendered one an outlaw. The four pillars of the world were extroverts, livewires, socializers, and befrienders, and those who modeled themselves after the four pillars were in charge. Luccee spent much of her time alone, and her brother Trevers was always nagging her to get out and socialize to stay up and accumulate points so she wouldn't be evicted. I've read a lot of books and watched a lot of movies that show a world where robots (AIs) rule the globe, but I could never see myself living in such a society. In 2084, these individuals would even prosper on Earth, according to this book. What would you do in a technologically advanced society if authorities you had never seen were in charge of your life? A society where being solitary and introverted is despised? Some people, specifically extroverts, wouldn't have a problem with this.
