Synopsis

This book ponders what it means to be human in both the physical and metaphysical senses. The author uses concepts such as robotics, computer science, and artificial intelligence as a way to explore the concept of being and consciousness. The text probes the evolution of both mankind and technology while simultaneously challenging readers to question the very nature of existence across both disciplines. By using examples and posing questions, the author brings to light thought-provoking ideas regarding whether humans are, or can become, machines and conversely if machines can become human. This complex and philosophical analysis invites readers to evaluate the nature of their own reality as it relates to the potential merging of man and machine.
