Consciousness and Artificial Intelligence
Can machines become aware?
AI & Philosophy
$12.99
A frontier inquiry into awareness, computation, and personhood.
This volume explores whether artificial systems can ever be conscious or whether they can only imitate the outward signs of awareness. It examines intelligence, machine learning, simulation, embodiment, agency, self-modeling, and the difference between information processing and lived inner experience.
Overview
The book introduces the central philosophical debate surrounding artificial consciousness: whether awareness can arise from complexity and computation alone, or whether consciousness depends on qualities not captured by functional performance. It also considers ethics, identity, rights, and the future implications of seemingly intelligent systems.
Ideal for readers exploring AI from both technical and philosophical angles, this volume asks what it really means to say that something thinks, feels, or knows itself.
