Seeming Human: Artificial Intelligence and Victorian Realist Character offers a new theory of realist character through characters unexpected afterlife: the intelligent machine. The book contends that midtwentiethcentury versions of artificial intelligence (AI) offer a theory of verisimilitude omitted by traditional histories of character, which often focus on the development of interiority and the shift from flat to round characters in the Victorian era. Instead, by reading character through AI, Megan Wards Seeming Human argues that routinization, predictability, automation, and even flatness are all features of realist characters.Early artificial intelligence movements such as cybernetics, information theory, and the Turing test define ways of seemingrather than beinghuman. Using these theories of verisimilitude to read Victorian novelists such as Elizabeth Gaskell, Margaret Oliphant, Anthony Trollope, Thomas Hardy, and Henry James, Seeming Human argues that mechanicity has been perceived as antirealist because it is the element that we least want to identify as human. Because AI produces humanlike intelligence, it makes clear that we must actually turn to machines in order to understand what makes realist characters seem so human.
