A mighty battle is being fought by the cultural warriors in the land — a war to be recognized as equal and unique. Normal is an ubiquitous label not fit for the American collective conscious.

This is not your typical AI novel. The Last Algorithm is an experimental work of meta-fiction - a boundary-pushing memoir that blurs the line between reality, digital hallucination, and the future of storytelling itself. Based on Real Events: In May 2025, freelance journalist Marco Buscaglia (Marco B in the story) published a summer reading list that ignited a minor media storm: nine of the “recommended” book titles, each convincingly attributed to real authors, didn’t exist.
