When we create non-biological life-forms, will we do so in our image? Or will we accept the once-in-a-species opportunity to remake ourselves in their image? What do love, caring, sex, and attachment look like when humans form connections with non-human helpers, teachers, sex-workers, and companions? And what will happen to our deep-rooted assumptions about gender? Will the physical body that is our home soon be enhanced by biological and neural implants, keeping us fitter, younger, and connected? Is it time to leave Planet Earth?
In twelve eye-opening, mind-expanding, funny, and provocative essays on the implications of artificial intelligence that look to history, religion, myth, literature, politics, and computer science to help us understand, Jeanette Winterson tackles AI's most fascinating talking points, from the algorithms that data-dossier your whole life to the weirdness of backing up your brain.
"Thought-provoking and necessary—and sometimes very funny." — The Guardian
"Fascinating. . . . Winterson makes granular tech know-how remarkably accessible." — Publishers Weekly
