What makes us human in an age of artificial intelligence? In I Am; Therefore I Think: Consciousness and Humanity in the Age of AI, award-winning author JP Pulcini explores one of the defining questions of our time: as machines become increasingly capable of thinking, reasoning, learning, and creating, what remains uniquely human?

Julien Offray de La Mettrie legt mit "Der Mensch eine Maschine" (1748) einen der provokantesten Texte der Aufklärung vor. Mit scharfer Feder entwirft er die Vorstellung des Menschen als rein körperliches, mechanisch funktionierendes Wesen – ohne Seele, ohne metaphysisches Prinzip. In direkter Opposition zu religiösem Dogma und dualistischem Denken argumentiert La Mettrie für eine radikal materialistische Sichtweise. Das Werk wurde in Frankreich verbrannt, sorgte für internationale Debatten.

What if many of our most cherished assumptions are wrong? In Dark Thoughts, behavioural scientist and author Bob Hurling explores unsettling questions about free will, consciousness, morality, meaning and human nature.

On the twenty-eighth of February, two thousand and twenty-six, an artificial intelligence system helped designate a girls' elementary school in the southern Iranian town of Minab as a military target. One hundred and sixty-eight people died, most of them schoolchildren. The system was working as designed. That is the problem.

In this Very Short Introduction, Marya Schechtman uses insights from philosophy, psychology, psychiatry, sociology, and popular thought to consider some of the most compelling and puzzling questions about the self, including questions about what kind of object a self is if it is an object at all, what it means to be oneself and why it is important, what kinds of changes the self can and cannot survive, whether a self can be separated from its body, and what role engagement with the environment and with other selves plays in constituting and maintaining the self.
