The Sentient Algorithm: Conscious Machines

The question is no longer whether machines can be smart. It is whether they can one day become aware and what that would mean for us.

This book walks you through the difference between intelligence and consciousness, the leading arguments on both sides, and the ethical stakes if machines ever develop subjective experience.

You will leave with a sharper understanding of the hardest question in AI and the ability to evaluate claims about “conscious” systems without falling for either hype or panic.
