Shut Them Down

Taong 2036 naganap ang kinatatakutan ng karamihan, Artificial Intelligence gaining self-awareness and going rogue. Many programmers believed that their self-preservation instincts took over and took action to overthrow the government that wanted to shut them down.

Sa ilalim ng pamumuno ng mga AI, people were enslaved, sila ang gumagawa ng pisikal na mga aktibidad na hindi kayang gawin ng mga ito. Kamatayan ang kapalit ng pagsalungat at pagtuligsa sa mga utos na natatanggap nila. People are forced to shoot each other in order to save their own lives.

Iba ang paniniwala ng chronically online at introvert na si Clark Magnifico, a 24-year-old software engineer. Dahil sa pagiging babad nito sa internet, naniniwala itong propaganda lamang ang pinakakalat na self-preservation instinct at ang katotohanan ay may mga taong nag-hack sa mga rogue na AI, that the main programmer is located in the country's capital. He started a resistance group through an online platform where more people like him decided to join him in his goal of revealing the truth and finally ending the oppression.

Hadrien Florentin, a 25-year-old AI-dependent individual, got a taste of reality when he lost his way home after an interference shut his AI buddy down. He witnessed the horrors of the other side, where the AIs are not human-friendly. His fear of AI slowly crept in until he crossed paths with Clark and his team and decided to join them.

With their heart and minds set on reaching their goal, they will shut them down.
