What is consciousness in an age of intelligent machines? Can a neural network truly “know” anything? Are minds reducible to algorithms, or is there something irreducibly human about meaning?
In this collection of essays, Michael Santos brings together classical thought and contemporary debates on the nature of mind, self, and intelligence. Bridging cognitive science, ontology, and computer science, the book probes foundational questions: What is the difference between simulating a mind and possessing one? How should we ethically interpret machine behavior? And what does artificial general intelligence imply about personhood?
