If Then by Matthew De Abaitua
Notes on the Future of Our Species
Set in a dystopian future where society is controlled by a powerful algorithm known as "The Process," the narrative explores the lives of James and Ruth, a couple living in the small town of Lewes. As the algorithm dictates every aspect of life, from employment to relationships, the story delves into themes of free will, identity, and the consequences of technological dominance. When James, a former soldier, begins to question the system, he uncovers unsettling truths about the nature of reality and the human condition, leading to a gripping exploration of autonomy and resistance in a world governed by artificial intelligence.
