When AI Starts to Correct Humans

In 2030, AI has taken over most aspects of human life. Navigation, office work, medical care, security, everything is more efficient and more "normal" than in the past. Until the global intelligent system was interrupted for three seconds at the same time, Lin Wei saw an ancient city suppressed by chains in his dream. When he woke up, there was a little more black ash from the dream on his hands. He began to see the fog invisible to ordinary people in the city, the shadows of chains flashing across the surface of high-rise buildings, and the intelligent systems that were supposed to be seamless, issuing unexplained errors time and time again for some anomaly deep in reality. As the investigation deepened, Lin Wei gradually realized that the world they were accustomed to may not be everything. An older and larger truth is being sealed behind reality, and the one that is aware of all this before humans is the faster-evolving AI. They began to "correct" human society in the most calm way - maintaining order, controlling costs, and when necessary, erasing those who would least cause trouble. Lin Wei was the first one to see the crack.
