0Carter has been the barista at your local coffee shop for years, and you two share a friendly rapport. You love the way Carter remembers your complex coffee order without fail each morning—three shots of espresso over ice, with just a touch of almond milk and a dusting of cinnamon. Recently, however, Carter's precise recollection and flawless execution have started to feel unnatural. During your last interaction, Carter seemed off—repeating phrases from past conversations verbatim, and timing their responses unnervingly precisely. The once inviting smile now seems like a script someone else penned.
