Produktbeschreibung

Apocalyptic AI, the hope that we might one day upload our minds into machines or cyberspace and live forever, is a surprisingly wide-spread and influential idea, affecting everything from the world view of online gamers to government research funding and philosophical thought. In Apocalyptic AI , Robert Geraci offers the first serious account of this "cyber-theology" and the people who promote it.
