The Algorithm of Affection | A Dystopian Love Story (Sci-Fi Audio)

Описание: The Algorithm of Affection | 'New Providence'

Welcome to 'New Providence' — where LoveNet decides...

'The Algorithm of Affection' is a science fiction audio story set in a near-future city called 'New Providence' where love itself is assigned, optimized, and managed by an all-knowing system.

Nadia meets her government-approved soulmate through LoveNet, an algorithm designed to eliminate heartbreak, uncertainty, and emotional risk. Their compatibility is high. Their relationship is stable. Their happiness is measurable. And yet — something essential is missing.

As Nadia and Jai follow the rules of a perfectly curated romance, they begin to feel the quiet ache of what the system cannot model: desire, wrongness, unpredictability, and the dangerous pull of unapproved love. When LoveNet offers them a controlled experiment in “free affection,” they must decide whether love is something to be optimized — or something that must be chosen, even when it costs too much.

This is a literary, dystopian sci-fi short story about:

AI-controlled relationships and algorithmic matchmaking
The difference between safety and intimacy
Whether love without risk is still love
The quiet grief of lives we are not allowed to choose

Perfect for fans of dystopian sci-fi audiobooks, near-future fiction, and thought-provoking science fiction audio.

This story is part of the ‘New Providence’ universe — a connected collection of speculative science-fiction short stories and novellas set in the same futuristic city 100 years from now, inspired by the original Ray Bradbury classic short story ‘The Pedestrian’.

You can listen to each ‘New Providence’ story on its own, or experience them as a growing narrative about a world quietly outliving its people.

🎧 If you enjoy thoughtful science fiction audio stories, AI dystopias, and emotionally resonant storytelling in the vein of 'Black Mirror', 'Her', and 'Ex Machina', this story is for you.
