Series: Sentience

Tune in to what is uniquely human about you, and channel a creativity that is beyond the reach of AI.

Painter, poet, composer, performer, or prose monkey-aspiring artist or seasoned pro-if you're after a deeper perspective, this book is for you.

To say that we humans 'feel' while an AI does not hardly scratches the surface.

In this book Blakelaw uses a specific theory of what makes us conscious to spell out what makes us different from-and superior to-even the smartest machines (which is what an AI is, after all).

Conscious experience is not a simple thing; it is causative and it offers us freedoms in ways that are not immediately obvious.

Out of a Babel of arguments and considerations about the threats, promises, and challenges of AI, Blakelaw arrives at a broad manifesto that should inspire any artist in any field to keep raising their game, and never stop.

Only a human being can be Authentic. That is the key.

Carter Blakelaw lives in bustling central London, in a street with two bookshops and an embassy, any of which might provide escape to new pastures, if only for an afternoon. For over a decade Carter has delivered critiques at writers' workshops and critique groups, some of whose members have transformed themselves into prize-winning and best-selling authors. However, it is the frequency of numerous weaknesses, as exposed by these groups and especially in the work of developing writers, that motivates the writing of this book.
