Mankind has entered a new age due to its scientific advancements. We have entered the age of `intelligence'. The creation of `non-human' intelligence (NH-I). We say non-human as this encompasses more than just `digital' innovations (e.g., artificial intelligence), since higher-intelligence comes in many forms - for example, in recent years, `brain-cells' have been grown in a lab and interfaced with a computer to play simple video games, not to mention, `hybrid' experiments, that merge biological and digital aspects in a unified form to create enhance intelligence. These are exciting times, some may say dangerous, but you cannot ignore them. This book is a light in the dark, that debates and explains the exciting topic in a casual and open tone - using references to science fiction and the latest scientific breakthroughs. This text is a `friendly' read, that you can take anywhere (even while on the go). So you can explore the complex rabbit-hole of non-human intelligence, including the controversial and often painful moral and ethical dilemmas of right and wrong through to the evolution of mankind, religion and the future. There isn't any right or wrong - and the dilemmas discussed in this book touch on various open and opinionated views in a delightful and intriguing way that we hop you will enjoy.
