The Isle of Britain was a center of advanced computer programming before the Second Great Depression hit.  Many of the best colleges in the known world competed in the drive to create true artificial intelligence.  Oxford’s greatest creation was Victoria, using what they called an artificial soul algorithm.  She passed the Turing tests with flying colors, but we don’t know how.  The Jihadist firebombs and EMP strikes killed the programmers and irradiated her databanks.
