In 'Data Dark: The Trust Paradox,' you play as Alex Mercer, a brilliant but jaded tech journalist. After a mysterious tech start-up claims to have revolutionized AI technology, you are summoned to investigate their product launch filling the air with buzz words, half-truths, and enigmatic invites. As you uncover layers of deceit, navigate corporate espionage, and decipher cryptic messages, you must choose carefully who to trust: the flashy CEO with a polished smile or the lonesome whistleblower hiding in the shadows. Each choice affects the fate of the tech world and could reveal or conceal dark secrets about AI's impact on society. Can you find the truth before the public's trust in AI crumbles completely, or will you become just another pawn in their game?
