Un llamamiento inaplazable para poner freno a la carrera hacia la superinteligencia.Desde hace unos años, cientos de expertos en inteligencia artificial vienen advirtiendo que esta supone un grave peligro de extincion para la humanidad. Sin embargo, la carrera no ha dejado de intensificarse: empresas y paises compiten por crear maquinas mas inteligentes que cualquier persona, y el mundo no esta preparado. Durante decadas, Yudkowsky y Soares han estudiado como pensaran estas inteligencias, y su conclusion es cristalina: basta una minima desviacion para que desarrollen objetivos propios en conflicto con los nuestros. Si llega el momento, no habra marcha atras, pero aun estamos a tiempo de frenar y diseñar politicas que garanticen nuestra seguridad. La solucion esta clara: debemos actuar ahora para que la IA sea una aliada, no una amenaza.Este libro explica por que es importante que nos protejamos de la IA, como podrian sucederse los acontecimientos y que debemos hacer para evitar que nos domine.

Una guía para entender cómo la inteligencia artificial aumenta las capacidades humanas y se convierte en una verdadera aliada.¿La inteligencia artificial viene a desplazarnos? ¿A quitarnos el trabajo? ¿O viene a aumentar -como nunca antes- las capacidades que nos hacen humanos?En medio de promesas exageradas y noticias apocalipticas, Fredi Vivas -ingeniero, tecnologo y pionero en IA- nos propone una mirada distinta: lo humano y lo artificial ya no compiten, sino que se integran. En este libro traza el mapa de una nueva era, donde pensar, crear y decidir ya no es una tarea individual, sino un proceso compartido con maquinas inteligentes. Ademas, nos explica, de manera clara y accesible, como funciona este nuevo paradigma y por que nos involucra a todos. A traves de historias reales de cientificos que descubren nuevas proteinas, artistas que crean con la ayuda de la IA y docentes que enseñan junto con asistentes inteligentes, el autor nos muestra como la tecnologia se convierte en una extension de nuestra mente.Generacion IA no es un libro tecnico ni futurista. Es una guia para entender el presente y prepararse para lo que viene. Con una mirada etica, humana y realista, Fredi Vivas nos invita a dejar de temerle a la tecnologia y empezar a usarla como lo que es: una aliada.

What Does It Mean to Be Human in the Age of AI? With all the hype and speculation around artificial intelligence, its most profound effects have yet to be revealed. The bigger question is not just what AI is doing to our jobs but to our soulsour relationships with God and one another.In Godlike Power, Russell Haitch cuts through the noise to tell the story of three core developments: the push to humanize machines, drawing us into emotional bonds with AIs; the drive to mechanize people, rooted in Enlightenment reason and the Industrial Revolution; and how God became human, so that humans could become more like Godand how techno-religion proposes a rival path to divinity. These three stories offer contrasting religious visions. Haitch argues we are now confronted with two rival paths to divinity, and we must choose the right one. Godlike Power argues that the third storythe Christian story of real people becoming like Godoffers the timeless and hopeful vision we need, allowing us to journey into the age of AI on a path that leads to life.AI is the latest chapter in humanitys Promethean quest for godlike power. But it is also a story about our perennial quest for intimacy. Even as AI technology rapidly changes, Haitch argues we need wisdomsomething more than superintelligenceto attain the power and love we long for.With Godlike Power, you can wisely examine AI through a theological lens, enabling you to engage thoughtfully and responsibly with how AI is reshaping our understanding of identity, truth, and what it means to be human.

In 1968, Stewart Brand declared: We are as gods - and we might as well get good at it. Half a century later, that prophecy has come true.We can rewrite genes, edit embryos, build artificial minds, extend life, and terraform worlds. The old miracles - omniscience, omnipresence, even resurrection - are becoming standard operating procedure. But the real question isnt whether humanity can play god. Its whether we can do it wisely.In this book, the bestselling authors of Abundance and Bold return with a sweeping exploration of our species next great transformation. Blending hard science with vivid storytelling, Peter Diamandis and Steven Kotler chart humanitys ascent from scarcity to superabundance - and the psychological, ethical, and existential challenges that come with it.Across breakthroughs in AI, robotics, genetics, longevity, and consciousness research, they reveal a paradox at the heart of progress: as our external power expands, our inner resilience must evolve to match. Abundance without meaning leads to collapse. Intelligence without wisdom leads to extinction. To thrive in a world of everything, everywhere, all the time, we must learn to wield our godlike powers with humility, creativity, and flow.Equal parts warning and invitation, We Are As Gods is a map for flourishing in the exponential century. Because the future wont be built by those who fear whats coming, but by those who know how to turn chaos into creation.Abundance is here. Are you ready?

"SCIENCE+TECHNOLOGY+ARTS: Lessons Learned from a Decade of European Transdisciplinary Innovation" documents and reflects on the legacy of the S+T+ARTS Initiative, a pioneering European program that has, since 2016, redefined the interplay of art, science, and technology as a driver of innovation, cultural transformation, and societal change. By uniting contributions from diverse STARTS stakeholders, the book highlights both the achievements and the lessons of a decade of practice, offering valuable knowledge for policymakers, cultural leaders, educators, innovators, and practitioners seeking to replicate or adapt STARTS models in Europe and beyond. Along with it, the publication brings together a wide variety of exemplary artistic projects and best cases that reveal the richness of the STARTS approach. By looking into these experiences, the book highlights how art-science-technology collaborations create impact across sectors, expand ways of thinking, and demonstrate the lasting value of integrating creativity into Europes innovation ecosystem.
