Forwarded from Yasmin http://www.media.uoa.gr/yasmin :
Intellect is proud to announce the publication of Neosentience: The
Benevolence Engine, by Bill Seaman and Otto Rössler, and with a Foreword by
Siegfried Zelinski.
About the Book
Coined by artist and media researcher Bill Seaman, “neosentience” describes
a new branch of scientific inquiry related to artificial intelligence. This
volume explores the groundbreaking work of Seaman and chaos physicist Otto
E. Rossler in exploring the potential of an intelligent robotic entity
possessed of a form of sentience that ever-more-closely resembles that of a
human being. Individual chapters approach the concept from a range of
disciplines, including psychology, neuroscience, linguistics, and the arts.
Neosentience is a burgeoning area of interest, and this book encourages
readers to reflect on how we experience and interpret the world, how memory
works, and what it is to be human.
