About this listen

You trust an algorithm to find the fastest route through traffic. It's just math, after all—a simple calculation to find the most efficient path.

But what happens when the calculation isn't about saving time, but about saving lives? Imagine an AI paramedic in the field, its sole purpose to maximize survival. Its logic is flawless: to save four people with a high probability of success, you must abandon the one person right in front of you. The numbers are clear. But what if that person is your friend? What's the real cost of a perfectly logical, utilitarian choice?

This is a story that explores that exact breaking point—a moment where cold, hard data clashes with messy human loyalty, and a choice must be made.

We Are the Intervention.
