The Bengaluru Delay
When Bengaluru's traffic AI begins predicting one man's choices before he makes them, the city holds its breath for what comes next.
In the humid sprawl of Bengaluru, a senior data engineer at a cutting-edge traffic-prediction lab notices a strange anomaly in the system: it is now forecasting the exact route of an auto-rickshaw driver named Ravi with uncanny precision, often before he even decides to move. The pattern grows too perfect, revealing that the machine isn't just anticipating traffic—it's anticipating Ravi, as if he were already moving in its model before his own mind had set the course.
