We live in conversations like fish live in water—we’re in them all the time, so we don’t think about them much. As a result, we often find ourselves stuck in cyclical patterns of unproductive behaviors. We listen half-heartedly, react emotionally, and respond habitually, like we're on autopilot. This book is a practical guide for thoughtfully reflecting on conversations so we can avoid the common pitfalls that cause our relationships and work to go sideways.

Today's computers are composing music that sounds "more Bach than Bach", turning photographs into paintings in the style of Van Gogh's Starry Night, and even writing screenplays. But are computers truly creative - or are they merely tools to be used by musicians, artists, and writers? Miller, an authority on creativity, identifies the key factors essential to the creative process, from "the need for introspection" to "the ability to discover the key problem." He talks to people on the cutting edge of artificial intelligence and explores the riches of computer-created art.

Consciousness, teaches Fred Kofman, is the capacity to observe, choose, and act in accord with your values. And "conscious business" means using that ability at every level of your work: in being aware of the needs of others and expressing your own needs; in seeing the hidden emotional obstacles that may be holding your team back; in making good decisions under pressure; and even in delving into such spiritual questions as "Who am I?" and "What is my real purpose here?"

From Silicon Valley boardrooms to rural communes to academic philosophy departments, a seemingly inconceivable idea is being seriously discussed: that the end of humanity’s reign on earth is imminent, and that we should welcome it. Anthropocene antihumanism has been inspired by revulsion at...

The question of artificial intelligence and how far we, as a people, should take the technology is one of our society's biggest debates at the moment; as AI generated art, texts, and even communications have increased as the technology grows altogether. The insight which each chapter provides into the concept of human consciousness and the evolution of that consciousness was so beautifully explored in this book, and the way evolution plays into the idea of adapting consciousness into the development of AI is remarkable.

In an age where Artificial Intelligence (AI) evolves at a breakneck pace, the boundaries of machine capabilities are constantly being redefined. Propelled by advancements in deep learning and related technologies, AI is inching ever closer to mimicking human intellect. But can it achieve consciousness? And if so, at what cost to humanity?

Awareness: The most profound, intimate, and collective experience human beings share turns out to be an absolute mystery. As universal a state as consciousness is to every person, it currently carries no agreed upon definition beyond its observable characteristics.... Robert A. Revel cuts through religious and academic dogma to posit something he senses is profoundly obvious: that consciousness is its own dimensional phenomenon - the fifth operational feature in our universe.

In science fiction, artificial intelligence takes the shape of computers that can speak like people, think for themselves, and sometimes act against us. Reality of course is vastly different, though in many ways computers surpass their fictional counterparts. This book reviews work in the field and covers topics from chess-playing to quantum computing. The writers tackle how to make computers more powerful, how we define consciousness, what the hard problems are, and even how computers might be built once the limits of silicon chips have been reached.

Sigmund Freud, geboren am 6. Mai 1856 in Freiberg in Mähren als Sigismund Schlomo Freud, gestorben am 23. September 1939 in London, ein österreichischer Neuropathologe, Tiefenpsychologe, Kulturtheoretiker und Religionskritiker, hielt diese 5 Vorlesungen über Psychoanalyse im September 1909 zur 20-jährigen Gründungsfeier an der Clark University in Worcester, Massachusetts. Sigmund Freud gilt bekanntermaßen als Begründer der Psychoanalyse, die bis heute Anwendung findet und Pflichtlektüre für jeden Psychologie-Studenten und -Interessierten ist.

Die psychoanalytische Theorie nimmt an, dass der Ablauf der seelischen Vorgänge automatisch durch das Lustprinzip reguliert wird, das heißt, dass wir in unserer ganzen Existenz durch Vermeidung von Unlust oder Erzeugung von Lust getrieben sind. Aber es gibt darüber hinaus noch stärkere, unbekanntere "Triebe". Und Sigmund Freud geht auf die Suche nach jenen fundamentalen und kreatürlichen Dingen in der Seele, die ihm in der Arbeit als Therapeut begegnet sind, Wie zum Beispiel der Wiederholungszwang. Mit Hilfe von Hypothesen und in einer professoralen Sprache schlägt er sich Bahn.

Das Ich und das Es: Wie funktioniert die Psyche? Laut Freud wird das Seelenleben durch drei Instanzen bestimmt: Das Es, das Ich, das Über-Ich. Dieses genetische Strukturmodell der Psyche entwickelte Freud 1923 - es ist bis heute von großer Bedeutung für die psychoanalytische Theoriebildung.
