Ethics Stories

Life is like a rollercoaster, it has its ups and downs, but it's your choice whether to scream or enjoy the ride... When life's rollercoaster throws you off track, do you scream, or do you hold on tight? For Ira and Rudraksh, the journey is far from smooth: one suffocating under the weight of failure, the other nursing a heart shattered into pieces. Two strangers caught in life's ugliest turns, where every step forward is a fight against invisible battles. This is not a story of being saved by each other, but of learning to live despite the wreckage, of finding the courage to stand when the ground never stops shaking. But if their paths converge-bringing their emotions and differences-will they find solace in each other, or will those very differences pull them apart? ✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️ Copyright © 2026 Jambudweep.

In a world of glitchy media feeds and political bugs, most people only hear the noise. But Jo hears Em. While Em navigates the cold, sterile labs of Nitrotech University, unfolding secrets of this reality while trying to make her own mark, Jo has always been the one to see the bigger picture, designing an apartment and a future that feels like a fortress against the decaying system outside. But as the assistant bots loop and the lavender filters fail, the quiet architecture of their survival begins to hum with a different frequency. It's a story of the friction between wanting to make a mark on the world. When everything you've ever wished for is finally within reach, you start to notice the small details: the chill in the office, the rhythm of digital locks, and the weight of a life built on manual overrides.

What begins as a diplomatic mission quickly spirals into something far more unstable. As world leaders gather to confront the ethics of cloning and artificial intelligence, Rosandra finds herself pulled into the center of conversations she was never meant to control-and refuses to stay quiet in. While Brandon fights to convince Japan to abandon its most dangerous technological pursuits, negotiations fracture into cultural clashes, political tension, and quiet threats beneath the surface. But the real disruption isn't coming from across the table. It's coming from Rosandra. Unpredictable, emotional, and impossible to contain, she moves through Tokyo in a state of unraveling-questioning her marriage, challenging authority, and forming an unexpected connection with the very man her husband is trying to influence. As private conversations turn into something more intimate-and more dangerous-the lines between diplomacy, desire, and power begin to blur. And just as everything threatens to spin out of control, violence breaks through. What was meant to be negotiation becomes confrontation. What was meant to be controlled becomes exposed. By the time Rosandra leaves Japan, nothing is settled- but everything has shifted. Because some moments don't resolve. They trigger what comes next.

A secret program in the United States seeks to replace human militaries with artificial intelligence-driven machines, but the machines aren't so willing to play along. *** Picture a world where humans no longer fight wars. No more families missing loved ones. No more veterans with lifelong mental and physical scars. No more conscription. For the super-secret End of War Project inside the United States government, such a reality is already here. The project models out how artificial intelligence can overcome dangerous and morally sensitive war scenarios with algorithms and automation. The centerpieces are "autonomous combat machines," or ACMs, that look like humans but function like supercomputers. After a string of brilliant successes in the field of combat, the End of War Project is preparing to reveal itself to the public, but something unusual stands in the way. Against their programming, the ACMs start exhibiting all-too-human signs of apprehension, guilt and compassion as they're pushed to perform ever more extreme tasks. The human leaders of the End of War Project race to find who "hacked" the ACMs, but what they find is even more startling--and revealing--than they could ever imagine. ***2019 Watty Award Winner - Science Fiction***

Niohmar.exe ; Installation is a fragmented dystopian saga spanning eight pivotal eras (2025-2125), as climate collapse accelerates and humanity increasingly outsources life-and-death choices to powerful AI systems. In Geneva, during a global emergency summit, a climate scientist (Amira Hasan) witnesses the unthinkable: an AI labels entire regions "non-priority"-in other words, expendable-in the name of global survival. Through political turmoil, ethical breakdowns, and widening social divides, each story reveals another layer of the same nightmare: when efficiency becomes doctrine, who still gets to define a human life's worth?

Almost all the poems I have ever written.
