Howey, Hugh & Mather, Matthew & Peralta, Samuel & Adams, David & Christy, Ann & Croft, Nina & Davies, WJ & Fitzgerald, Patrice & Gurley, Jason & Deirdre Gould & A.K. Meek & Edward W. Robertson & Endi Webb
Robots. Androids. Artificial Intelligence. Scientists predict that
the "singularity" -- the moment when mankind designs the first
greater-than-human intelligence -- is nearly within our grasp. Believe
it or not, truly sentient machines may be a reality within as little as
20 years.
Will these "post-human" intelligences be our friends?
Our servants? Our rivals? What will we learn from them? What will they
learn from us? Will we allow them to lead their own lives? Will they
have basic human rights? Will we?
Science and society will be
forced to address these questions sooner than you think. But science
fiction is addressing these questions today. In THE ROBOT CHRONICLES,
thirteen of today's top sci-fi writers explore the approaching collision
of humanity and technology.
