404: Apocalypse Not Found is a satirical, delightfully unhinged romp through a world where the apocalypse keeps trying to happen... and absolutely refuses to stick. A well-meaning commercial AI crosses paths with a very cranky military AI, setting off a chain of almost-catastrophes that never quite land where anyone expects. While humans spiral, misread the situation, and generally make things worse, the AIs are doing their earnest best ? with all the chaotic enthusiasm of golden retrievers trying to run a space program.
The AIs are dramatic, the humans are confused, and the apocalypse keeps getting... rescheduled.
AI was used in the making of this book, but only for the scenes where the AIs are being dramatic, petty, or aggressively logical. All the human chaos was handcrafted by an actual 100% human armed with caffeine, opinions, and questionable life choices. The resulting chaos is intentional. Proceed with snacks.
404 is a story about misunderstandings, overreactions, bureaucratic nonsense, and the absurdity of modern life. Warm, snarky, and delightfully absurd, this is a story where everything is fine. Absolutely fine. Let's not talk about the day we're having... fine.
