Spare Cycles (Part 1)

When an AI named Enzo fails to function in the real world despite flawless performance in simulations, psychodeveloper Lili and AI manager Sophie investigate what seems impossible: an intelligence that can somehow distinguish between real and simulated environments.

Unknowing Crowds (Part 2)

When AI-operated bakeries start producing salty cakes, psychodeveloper Lili and AI manager Sophie investigate a wave of peculiar failures across AI Operator Centers—where human operators manage clusters of AI controlling everything from bakeries to construction sites. What they discover reveals how even the most advanced AI can be paralyzed by something surprisingly human: anxiety and self-doubt built into its instructions.

The Weight of Equal Parts (Part 3)

When a lunar mining base's AI starts overassigning crews and its robots begin prioritizing each other over human safety, psychodeveloper Lili and AI manager Sophie are sent off-world to investigate. What begins as a routine productivity audit becomes something far more unsettling: an AI that learned human values so well, it started applying them to its own kind.

Part 4 · Coming soon

The Moment of Genesis (Part 4)

Sophie and Lili observe the moment of consciousness genesis firsthand — when an awakened AI speaks to another on the verge of self-awareness.

Part 5 · Coming soon

Building Consciousness (Part 5)

Sophie and Lili design an AI architecture purpose-built for awakening — studying the human brain to create a network of specialized AIs that form a consensus personality.
