Idea for a short story
A young couple move in with a grandparent to help look after her and the husband starts upgrading the ancient cottage into a smart home. Unfortunately the house already has a set of non-human caretakers: a pair of brownies, spirits that help look after the home. The brownies have been with the house for centuries. The grandmother knows about them but hadn't told anyone for fear of seeming unhinged. The brownies take exception to their new AI associate and war begins between the magical and the cybernetic. None of this is very helpful to the humans, not least because neither the Good Folk nor the computer have very human motives. The grandmother has to introduce the young people to the magical world just as they are introducing her to the digital and some kind of balance has to be achieved between the various occupants of the house, real and unreal.
