Eye of Truth: The ClearSight Reckoning

Hacker Anthology

In a near-future Europe transformed by ClearSight—a revolutionary AI-driven technology that verifies memory accuracy by tracking the subtlest movements of the human eye—truth is no longer subjective. Courtrooms, intelligence agencies, and schools now rely on this system to judge everything from guilt to academic honesty, promising a new era of objectivity. But as the technology spreads, its reach exposes society’s deepest fractures: privacy erodes, dissent grows, and a shadowy underground of neurohackers emerges, teaching criminals and activists alike how to outsmart the all-seeing gaze. At the heart of this upheaval stands Ádám Albi, the reserved scientist who dreamt of anchoring society in fact, not fiction. Haunted by the ghosts of his own family’s history under surveillance regimes, Ádám watches as his invention is co-opted by The Authority—a faceless alliance of governments and corporations hungry for control. His charismatic partner, Péter Pajkossy, becomes the face of ClearSight’s relentless expansion, blind to the ethical chaos left in its wake. Meanwhile, Mohamed El Haj, a principled neuropsychologist, rallies a global resistance, forcing Ádám to confront the ultimate question: will he risk everything to expose ClearSight’s dangers, or stand by as his life’s work becomes the foundation for a new era of psychological dominance? As alliances shift and old friendships fracture, the battle for memory—and the future of truth—begins.
