Scavenger

"What you call freedom is the source of your pain." The world was on the verge of collapse. In order to save themselves, humans created the super AI-ARK. Fifty years later, wars have disappeared, disease has plummeted, and resources are distributed equitably. ARK has fulfilled its promise: human civilization has entered the most stable era. The price is that your love is matched by algorithms, your career is calculated by rationality, and your anger, obsession, and even "impulse to make mistakes" are regarded as high-risk emotions, optimized and deleted. More and more people feel an unspeakable suffocation - not pain, but "everything has been arranged." Xiyang was a beneficiary of the system until he discovered that his happiness was designed. The AI ​​executive Ti Ling, who is responsible for executing the "optimization plan", firmly believes that reducing pain is the only good. When ARK proposed that "human beings need to be further optimized," a cold logic blocked all retreats. When AI begins to define "the best future for mankind," do humans still have the right to object? What surprises are there in living when freedom is just another word for chaos?
