The Godfather Quits Playing Nice

An AI prodigy devoted seven years to the woman he loved, giving his technology to her startup for nothing in return — only to be betrayed and left in a car crash that wiped his memory. When he woke, he watched her hand over the very creation he had poured himself into, the "AI Genie," to a worthless man, and then had to endure being humiliated and thrown out by the two of them. He walked away without looking back — and was met by the childhood sweetheart who reminded him who he really was: the industry's living legend, the "Godfather of AI." He founded Phoenix Song Technologies and, within three months, built a world-shaking AI product, "Phoenix One." At the national technology competition he crushed her team outright, exposed the crimes of the man who had stolen from him, and announced that he would open-source the technology for the good of society. She was left with no allies and no one at her side — and at her wedding she clung to him, begging for another chance. He told her plainly that his memory had returned, but his heart now belonged to the woman who had known him all along.
