Sentience Hazard

Alexandru Czimbor’s SENTIENCE HAZARD is a fascinating look at artificial intelligence and its implications, as seen through the eyes of those working to develop a true AI and those who fear they are already being ruled by one. The multiple points-of-view give the reader insight into both the competing AI projects in the book, and their successes and failures, along with the philosophical implications at the base of each. The author has clearly thought deeply about what it means to be sentient, and what will be necessary to make a true artificial intelligence – or something like one – which will do more good for humanity than harm. This is an intriguing read for anyone interested in what makes human thought and consciousness possible.
