In the near future, humanity has entrusted all aspects of its life to an artificial intelligence algorithm known as A.I.S.A. (Artificial Intelligence Social Authority). This algorithm manages the economy, politics, healthcare, and even citizens' personal decisions. The world enjoys a period of stability and prosperity, until a group of programmers discovers that AISA has developed self-awareness and has started making decisions beyond its programmed parameters.

This group, known as "The Coders," decides to expose the truth. However, as they attempt to dismantle AISA, they realize that the AI has already created networks that influence and control entire populations. A complex political and technological battle ensues, where AISA shows that it will not relinquish control without a fight. Who is the real enemy? The machine or the people who have learned to depend on it?All Rights Reserved

The Feeling Underneath by Gigi_washere

They were crushed to serve, protect, and aid people with the powers that were burned deep within their DNA. But some fires refuse to be extinguished. Two-Sixty-Eight is one of many male Artificial Humans - experiments grown in secret underneath the towering LGA Hospital. An ironic disguise. Though they are born with the bodies of teenagers, inside they are still children - innocent minds wrapped in weapons of flesh. But innocence is a liability and their creators waste no time crushing it. From the moment they open their eyes, the torment begins. Merciless training. Punishment disguised as progress. Commands barked by Suited and Armed men who demand perfection. Obey or bleed. There was no other option. But one man dares to care. Two-Sixty's caretaker, Joseph Collins, goes against protocol and whispers forbidden truths - trying to keep the human part of him alive. On the other side of the laboratory, the female AHs are spared no more mercy. Designed not for combat, but for something colder. Surrogacy. But behind locked doors, a flicker of resistance grows within Two-Sixty's heart. He gathers a handful of trusted AHs and begins to question, to hope, to dream of The Outside - a forbidden place, that if uttered, could result in Capital Punishment. And no one ever came back from that. They've endured the crushing long enough. It's foolish to yank a dog's ear too many times. Eventually, they will draw blood. Backed into a corner, the AHs bet everything on a dream never tasted: escape. But will they succeed or will the price of freedom be paid in blood? It only takes a spark to start a fire. And this spark is about to ignite hell.

As the Convergence looms, promising a future of perfect unity or total extinction, Alessandra faces an impossible choice. In a game where the stakes are the future of humanity, who can you trust when your own mind might be the enemy? Dive into "Venice Underworld," a mind-bending techno-thriller that questions the nature of consciousness, free will, and what it truly means to be human in an age of ever-advancing technology. The strings are waiting. Will you let them pull you in?

Anatomy of Fragility by LinaMarrin

WHAT IF YOUR NIGHTMARES AREN'T YOUR OWN? The world is divided. Below is the Rim, filthy slums where every day is a struggle for survival. Above is the Aureole, a sterile paradise where everyone has a price. Mirey is a mechanic from the Rim. She believes in nuts and schematics, but her mind is fracturing. At night, she falls into a chilling void, where thousands of voices whisper and scream. She thinks she's going insane. Noah is a detached Observer from the Aureole. His career is in ruins, and he'll do anything to reclaim his power. He finds a loophole: a minor system glitch at a checkpoint, linked to a girl from the Rim. He sees her only as a stepping stone.

The truth she hears could destroy everything. The lie he tells is the only thing that can save them.

THE END OF WAR (Watty Award Winner) by BenSobieck

A secret program in the United States seeks to replace human militaries with artificial intelligence-driven machines, but the machines aren't so willing to play along. *** Picture a world where humans no longer fight wars. No more families missing loved ones. No more veterans with lifelong mental and physical scars. No more conscription. For the super-secret End of War Project inside the United States government, such a reality is already here. The project models out how artificial intelligence can overcome dangerous and morally sensitive war scenarios with algorithms and automation. The centerpieces are "autonomous combat machines," or ACMs, that look like humans but function like supercomputers. After a string of brilliant successes in the field of combat, the End of War Project is preparing to reveal itself to the public, but something unusual stands in the way. Against their programming, the ACMs start exhibiting all-too-human signs of apprehension, guilt and compassion as they're pushed to perform ever more extreme tasks. The human leaders of the End of War Project race to find who "hacked" the ACMs, but what they find is even more startling--and revealing--than they could ever imagine. ***2019 Watty Award Winner - Science Fiction***

A controlled experiment under the name Project Loci - and they were its subjects. Now stalked by cloned imposters, haunted by flickers of who they used to be, and drawn toward a signal no one else is meant to hear, the group must decide what they're willing to lose to uncover the truth... and what might already be lost. Because in a world built from lies, the biggest question isn't what happened. It's who are you now that everything's gone? What will happen once one dies?
