Your DNA Is The Key - The Algorithm Will See You Now by J L Lycette #JLLycette @partnersincr1me

MY REVIEW

If you have doubts or fears about AI or our healthcare system, The Algorithm Will See You Now, by J L Lycette, a near futuristic thriller, is sure to add to them.

Hope had joined PRIMA so she did not have to face telling her patients their disease is fatal, non responsive. Non responders are not allowed in the PRIMA program. Why waste valuable resources on those that are going to die anyway? Your DNA is the key.

Hope’s mother had died a horrible death from cancer, and she was in total agreement.

The Algorithm Will See You Now is a terrifying look into, not only, the possible future of healthcare, but every part of our life. What school someone should go to, who gets what loan, what job….the numbers control every aspect of your life.

With corruption, motives, control, and power being a driving force, it can always be worse.

Have you been denied treatment? No insurance, no care? What about the poor?

Maybe, in the end, what mattered most was what action we each choose with a power greater than ourselves.

Medical treatment determined by artificial intelligence could do more than make Hope Kestrel’s career. It could revolutionize healthcare.

What the Seattle surgeon doesn’t know is the AI has a hidden fatal flaw, and the people covering it up will stop at nothing to dominate the world’s healthcare—and its profits. Soon, Hope is made the scapegoat for a patient’s death, and only Jacie Stone, a gifted intern with a knack for computer science, is willing to help search for the truth.

But her patient’s death is only the tip of the conspiracy’s iceberg. The Director, Marah Maddox, is plotting a use for the AI far outside the ethical bounds of her physician’s oath. A staggering plan capable of reducing human lives to their DNA code, redefining the concepts of sickness and health, and delivering the power of life and death decisions into the hands of those behind the AI.

Even if the algorithm accidentally discards some who are treatable in order to make that happen…

JL Lycette’s powerful, near-future thriller, The Algorithm Will See You Now, is perfect for fans of Blake Crouch and Rob Hart.
