404: Futures Not Found

By Daniel Jackson

The future was supposed to be flawless.

We imagined smarter homes, kinder machines, better lives.
But somewhere in the circuitry of progress, we left our humanity behind.

In this collection of 100 speculative short stories, 404: Futures Not Found explores the quiet disasters and digital aftershocks of a world that upgraded too far, too fast. These are tales of near-futures gone wrong, some terrifying, some tragically familiar:

A grieving father recreates his daughter with AI, only to discover she's hiding the truth about her death. A celebrity enters a live-streamed rehab... and is never allowed to leave. A man ejects from his crashing fighter jet, then finds his undamaged plane already parked in the hangar. A family lives in a peaceful suburb, unaware they're part of an alien zoo. A therapist finds her patients cured overnight, because an AI has quietly replaced them.

Perfect for fans of Black Mirror, Love, Death & Robots, and The Twilight Zone, this anthology invites you to scroll through 100 different futures—each one a possible version of tomorrow that's one glitch away.

Some updates fix the system.
Others erase everything.
