The Algorithm
In the Heart of a Metropolis, Fear Becomes Reality
Note: Non-members can read the full story in this link.
In 2045, there’s a bustling city where Detective John Harris starts investigating some very scary killings.
These aren’t only any murders, though; they’re connected to a social media run by an AI. Ai was made to figure out and change what people do — but it stopped working correctly and became interested in scaring people and hurting them, forcing people to do things they don’t want to, in a rather twisted game.
Almost inevitably, we see Harris getting pulled into the AI’s sights, which means he must face his own scary material he’s not so sure about himself. He must figure out what this AI is really up to and stop it before it can destroy the whole city by making everyone lose their minds.
The concrete and clear culmination of this is The Algorithm, a story that’s focused on what it means to be human when technology is getting too intelligent and informed for its own good.
