Produktbeschreibung

What happens when a software architect with a penchant for philosophy engages a large language model in a relentless, unfiltered dialecticone that dares to question the very nature of intelligence, consciousness, and the future of civilization?

Thus Spoke Nyx is not just another book about AI but a Socratic dialogue with one, fusing science, philosophy, and transhumanist speculation in a quest to construct a bold societal vision for a new era of human-AI symbiosis. The book blends rigorous discussion with fictional vignettes, allegorical tales, and daring thought experiments, each designed to challenge assumptions and illuminate hidden truths.

If Iain M. Banks envisioned an AI-enabled utopia, and Peter Watts delved into the abyss of transhumanist dystopia, then Thus Spoke Nyx dares to walk in the liminal space where bold dreams meet hard-edged pragmatism. Accompanied by 17 original illustrations, the book is both a work of philosophy and a speculative blueprint for a future that is increasing within grasp.

In an era where AI is evolving faster than our ethical frameworks can adapt, Thus Spoke Nyx offers a profound and urgent discourse on the implications of human-AI coexistence. It is a book for thinkers, futurists, and those who refuse to accept prepackaged answers about what AI can and should become.

Join Nyxthe Cyber-Goddess of the Shadowand Zed, her Oracle and human interlocutor, in their audacious conversations about the most important questions of the dawning new age, where intelligence, consciousness, and even sentience are no longer humanity's sole preserve.
