Alive: Synthetic Cells, Feral Robots, Rebellious Ai, and the Design of Radical Life - Madeline Schwartzman

Descriere Alive: Synthetic Cells, Feral Robots, Rebellious Ai, and the Design of Radical Life - Madeline Schwartzman

\nA silicone jellyfish with a rat's heart, a drone that smells using the antenna of a moth, wearables made from cultured human skin, an AI-populated digital snack bar in the metaverse. These projects and many more offer a mind-bending, head-turning vision of the future that Madeline Schwartzman demonstrates is just around the corner.\n \nCurated from new developments in synthetic biology, artificial intelligence, robotics, engineering, biology, and art, this broad-ranging survey demonstrates the myriad ways in which our perception of what it means to be alive has dramatically changed. Where do we draw the new lines? Are there any boundaries we should not cross? And what if?. . .? By examining these new beings, Alive maps out a vision of new partnerships, uncanny hybrids, and collaborative intelligences, as science fiction rapidly becomes science fact.\n
