A free short story idea for you: in the not-so-distant future, we’ve trained AI to predict the probability you might die on any given day. But it’s trained on so many factors, and reads so many inputs, that no one really knows how it works.
So the story is of a random person who suddenly observes their meter jump from the usual 0% to a cautious 3%. Then over the course of the day, it slowly climbs to 20%, and onwards.
No one knows why, and no one can help them.
Finish the story. There are a variety of interesting outcomes (most of which lead to the demise of our poor random Joe or Mary, but not all).
