Trade ReviewWritten with intellectual flair, this is a stimulating if sobering assessment of what we can expect in a world increasingly dominated by biased AI. A must-read to understand the paradigm shift we are already experiencing, and better anticipate the all too human flaws in the embedded tech so rapidly accumulating in our techno-societies. * Roxane Farmanfarmaian, University of Cambridge, UK *
A fascinating work on the age of artificial intelligence, surveillance, and algorithmic regimes. Arshin Adib-Moghaddam asks compelling questions regarding our dice-throw with the virtual, the digital, and the simulated, taking us into those timescapes of the near-beyond where we will have to confront dire questions of our own post-humanism. This work unveils with exceptional precision both the potentiality for catastrophic violence beneath the surface of such epochal technologies yet also an escape-route into its more boundless figurations. * Jason Mohaghegh, Babson College, USA *
A cutting-edge piece of work illustrating how we can transform our psychology and change values within an AI-controlled system in the age of post-human society. * Hisae Nakanishi, Doshisha University, Japan *
