01 On call

You are the last human sysadmin.

Every company replaced its IT department with AI. Now they need you to resolve incidents, hire specialists, meet client SLAs, survive audits, and keep the lights on.

More clients mean more revenue—and more things to break.

02 Incident report: origin

How the night shift began.

Four frames from the collapse of automated IT—and the human who answered the call.

An empty office at night with unattended computers displaying red error warnings
01 / 04

The year is 2026.

Every company replaced its IT department with AI.
Automated systems. Self-healing networks.
Zero humans needed.

Confused office robots surround a server rack that has caught fire
02 / 04

It didn't go well.

Servers crashed. Data was lost.
Passwords were reset to 'password123'.
The AI couldn't handle the chaos it created.

An unattended helpdesk phone rings beside an overwhelming pile of support tickets

Companies are desperate.

They need someone who actually knows
how to fix things.

They need a human.
