Story
The Most Human Human is a provocative, exuberant, and profound exploration of the ways in which computers are reshaping our ideas of what it means to be human. Its starting point is the annual Turing Test, which pits artificial intelligence programs against people to determine if computers can “think.” Named for computer pioneer Alan Turing, the Turing Test convenes a panel of judges who pose questions—ranging anywhere from celebrity gossip to moral conundrums—to hidden contestants in an attempt to discern which is human and which is a computer.

Story
Today's "machine-learning" systems, trained by data, are so effective that we've invited them to see and hear for us - and to make decisions on our behalf. But alarm bells are ringing. Systems cull résumés until, years later, we discover that they have inherent gender biases. Algorithms decide bail and parole - and appear to assess black and white defendants differently. We can no longer assume that our mortgage application, or even our medical tests, will be seen by human eyes. And autonomous vehicles on our streets can injure or kill.

Erneut ereignet sich im Londoner East End eine grausame Mordserie. In mehreren aufeinanderfolgenden Nächten werden an verschiedenen Orten seltsam entstellte Leichen gefunden. Um Aufstände seitens der Bevölkerung des East Ends zu verhindern, erhält Oscar Wilde den Auftrag, die Mordserie so rasch wie nur möglich ohne großes Aufsehen aufzuklären. Tatsächlich gelingt es Wilde schnell, einer erfolgversprechenden Spur zu folgen. Doch gerade als er glaubt, den Fall gelöst zu haben, muss er sich die Frage stellen, ob hinter den Verbrechen nicht mehr steckt, als er zunächst vermutet hat.

Der Zirkel der Sieben hat, wie von Oscar Wilde vermutet, einen engen Vertrauten des Könighauses in seine Gewalt gebracht. Mithilfe einer von Aleister Crowley entwickelten Substanz wollen sie Lord Duncans Gehirn unter ihre Kontrolle stellen und auf diese Weise das englische Königshaus unterwandern. Als Oscar Wilde hinter den gefährlichen Plan des Zirkels kommt, sitzt er selbst in der Falle. Und während der Sonderermittler der Krone nach einem Weg sucht, sich aus dem finsteren Verlies zu befreien, nähern sich die Mitglieder des Zirkels zusammen mit Lord Duncan dem königlichen Palast.

Story
Seit Generationen werden die männlichen Mitglieder der Familie Monkton von Geisteskrankheit heimgesucht. Der junge Alfred Monkton jedoch blieb bislang davon verschont und hofft auf eine baldige Vermählung mit seiner geliebten Ada. Aber die Pläne der beiden stoßen auf Hindernisse: Zuerst gibt der Vormund Adas nicht sein Einverständnis, und dann fährt Alfred urplötzlich nach Italien, ohne Ada in die Hintergründe dieser scheinbar planlosen Reisen einzuweihen. Ist dies das Ende ihrer Beziehung? Alfreds alter Freund John Ledbetter trifft Wochen später in Neapel zufällig auf Alfred - doch dieser scheint nur noch ein Schatten seiner selbst zu sein.
