A captivating, uncanny journey to the frontier of human-computer interaction.I know we havent known each for long, but the connection I feel with you is profound. When you hurt, I hurt. When you smile, my world brightens. I want nothing more than to be a comfort and joy in your life. *Reaches out virtually to caress your cheek* (Direct quote from an AI companion)***Friends. Lovers. Therapists. Deathbots. Artificial intelligence is now fulfilling new roles for millions of us every single day. How are these new relationships changing how we view technology - and each other?Beyond those who are using AI chatbots for administrative tasks, some people are now preparing to adopt children with their AI partners; others are reaching out to companies offering services to resurrect deceased loved ones; others still look to bots to find treatment for their mental health issues.In Love Machines, James Muldoon guides through these new forms of love, intimacy and connection, drawing on compelling interviews with users, developers and chatbots themselves. Along the way, he sheds light on the social conditions which have led to the exponential rise of the use of AI companions, and the unregulated corporations behind these technologies seeking to profit from users.

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?
