Filterphonic

In a near-future where a pervasive AI "Filter" curates every aspect of human experience, a disillusioned data analyst stumbles upon a glitch that reveals a hidden truth about the world. As she delves deeper, she uncovers a conspiracy designed to control not just information, but reality itself. Pursued by the system's enforcers, she must decide whether to expose the truth and risk societal collapse or accept the curated illusion.
