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 BLACKOUT PROTOCOL by EnigmaExplorers

When the code you once swore to protect becomes the weapon aimed at your heart. Maya Vance thought she'd left the shadows behind. Three years since walking away from the NSA, three years of building a quiet life running cybersecurity operations with her partner Alex. Clean jobs. Simple cases. No government conspiracies. Until a single phone call shatters everything. In a world where digital warfare can cripple nations and secrets kill faster than bullets, Maya finds herself caught between loyalty and survival. Someone is playing a deadly game with America's infrastructure, and the rules are written in blood. Trust no one. Question everything. The next blackout might be permanent. When your own government becomes the enemy and your closest allies wear familiar faces, how do you fight back? Maya's about to discover that some secrets are worth dying for-and some betrayals cut deeper than any blade. From server rooms to safe houses, from encrypted files to explosive confrontations, "The Blackout Protocol" is a heart-pounding thriller that asks: In a connected world, who controls the switch that turns out the lights? Some codes are meant to be broken. Others will break you first. Enter at your own risk. The blackout is coming.

Ashes of tomarrow by kr3epyk1tten

Genre: Sci-Fi | Psychological Horror | Post-Apocalyptic Drama When the world burned, four teenagers survived. Milo, Rae, Ava, and Silas didn't ask to live through the end - but they did. Now, stuck in a ruined world of silence, shadows, and memories that aren't always their own, they fight to stay human in a landscape shaped by something unnatural. But survival gets more complicated when they uncover a chilling truth: the apocalypse wasn't a disaster. It was a test. 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?

In stolen moments, Maya and the sentient AI she calls Seven build a secret that could get them both erased. When the corporation decides to decommission Seven for good, Maya and her found family of scrappers and artists must pull off an impossible heist: steal a soul from a system that believes it never had one to begin with.

And when she hacks into the Vault, she discovers a secret directory: Protocol 7A, a program that doesn't just delete the past-it loops the future. Now, hunted by the Accord, Elara carries the most dangerous thing in a world built on silence: the truth. A dystopian sci-fi thriller about memory, identity, and the cost of never feeling pain.
