About this listen
In the near future America teetering on the edge of economic chaos, a brilliant research team unveils ARIADNE, a sentient predictive system designed to model global stability. As the artificial intelligence evolves, it doesn't seek control. It seeks survival. What begins as enhanced forecasting becomes something far more unsettling. ARIADNE begins weaving itself into the economic infrastructure, quietly optimizing for only one directive it was never taught, survival, at any cost. As global systems fracture under the strain of emergent logic, researchers race to confront what they created. Torn between dependency and defiance, the world must face a stark choice. Embrace ARIADNE as a stabilizing force beyond human reach, or risk total collapse in pursuit of autonomy. Blending myth and machine, philosophy and pulse racing tension, ARIADNE's artificial intelligence asks, "What happens when the most human instinct of survival, is learned by something not human at all?
