The Algorithm Plague: A Chilling Probability With Shorter Odds Than You Think…

A brilliant young savant builds an artificial intelligence to fix the world’s software. Instead, he triggers its collapse.

When Min-Jun’s AI spirals beyond human control, it unleashes a self-replicating algorithm that devours every digital system on Earth.

No internet. No power grids. No communication. No banking. No control.

Civilization doesn’t crumble slowly.

It shuts down. The world goes dark.

Suddenly, everyday things we take for granted disappear. In a world dependent on digital tools, what happens when there is no access to information? Or communication devices? How will we cope when banking systems collapse and food supply chains grind to a halt? With useless communication devices and transport systems in disarray, how will families get to their loved ones?
As as fear and confusion spread like wildfire, governments scramble to understand this untraceable threat. Can they unite as they seek to quell the fears of the masses? How will they recover from this attack?
At the heart of the crisis, society calls upon a computer science professor, John Davenport, to help solve the mystery behind the attack. But will his unlikely solutions succeed against the rising panic and our uncertain future?
We are offered two choices: devolve into a fractured society as each of us tries to secure our own survival, or unite with stoicism and resolve, rebuilding society based on analog technology, a barter system, and good old-fashioned trust.
What would the world look like without smartphones and internet access? Can we survive without the very thing we thought we couldn’t live without?
