SAN FRANCISCO - January 3, 2060 - Timothy Hirsch leans demonstratively into the railing of the Grand Gate's pedestrian strait. Within a minute, a hovering prev-drone closes to gauge whether he is experiencing any form of anxiety. After receiving a negative answer, the drone continues down the one-mile path.
"There are certain 'tells' that prev-drones react to," Tommy says, "like gazing out at the Bay for too long, or leaning into the fence. If it picks up on such a tell, it'll come to strike up a conversation and if need be, try to talk you out of jumping. But sentient or not, a prev-drone can't look you in the eye and say that they're here for you. That everything will be all right. That you'd be missed. They can't hold your hand to make you remember what it's like to connect to someone. Only a human can do that with sincerity."
Today, it's precisely twenty years ago since Project GG/EZ. Timothy was one of many attendees at the infamous holovent that saw more than two hundred people leap to their deaths. "It shook me to my core. Everybody thought it was a joke, you know - one of those things that gains momentum on the holonet but never takes off. Until the first one went over."
Hirsch has been an active volunteer with the Humane Suicide Intervention Collective (HSIC) ever since. He devotes most of his free time to dissuading "potentials" from jumping off the Grand gate. "I do this not only because of GG/EZ, but because I've been in that place too, mentally. The 2030s were supposed to be the end of humankind. But they weren't, right?"
