Authentic Art in the Age of AI
Tune in to what is uniquely human about you, and channel a creativity that is beyond the reach of AI. Painter, poet, composer, performer, or prose monkey—aspiring artist or seasoned pro—if you're after a deeper perspective, this book is for you. To say that we humans 'feel' while an AI does not hardly scratches the surface. In this book Blakelaw uses a specific theory of what makes us conscious to spell out what makes us different from—and superior to—even the smartest machines (which is what an AI is, after all). Conscious experience is not a simple thing; it is causative and it offers us freedoms in ways that are not immediately obvious. Out of a Babel of arguments and considerations about the threats, promises, and challenges of AI, Blakelaw arrives at a broad manifesto that should inspire any artist in any field to keep raising their game, and never stop. Only a human being can be Authentic. That is the key.

This Robot Brain Gets Life (Making AI Pseudo-Conscious)
To align AIs' goals with ours, we must build-in alignment. Honesty too, must be built-in. To get AI to understand concepts, we must give AI something of what it's like to be conscious. This book builds an AI from a theory of consciousness.

Sentience
The three books in the Sentience series are bound together for the first time. What makes us conscious (Book I)? How close can a machine get to being like us (Book II)? and How do we humans maintain authenticity in the face of AI art (Book III)? For the philosopher, scientist, computational scientist or artist - here is Blakelaw's Big Picture in a single volume.
This Robot Brain Gets Life (Making AI Pseudo-Conscious)
For those in a hurry, this: - To align an AI’s goals with our own, we must build-in alignment from the start. - To keep an AI honest, we must build-in honesty from the start. - To get an AI to understand anything, we must invest it with something of what it’s like to be conscious. In this book, a theory of consciousness is cast into an AI architecture that allows interventions in concept formation by design. For the rest of you, who enjoy reading and mulling things over, this: Can a computing device appreciate the smell of coffee on a Sunday morning, or contemplate the Earth as seen from the Moon, or worry about inflation and the price of fuel? Not without being conscious and understanding the world. And one can't be done without the other, surely? In this book, Carter Blakelaw uses a theory of what makes us conscious to present a machine that will genuinely think for itself. Not only that, but once he has his machine, he looks at how to ensure its interests align with our own, and how to keep it honest and true (alignment and hallucinations being two of the biggest issues in AI). Discover what he discovers about the machine, about our world, and about us.
The Man in My Head Has Lost His Mind (What is Consciousness?)
The howl of the bedside clock-radio carves through your dreams like a buzz-saw through butter, and you are awake. In another place. Never mind the bright yellow sunlight that flecks your pillow and warms your face; you are rudely awake, and resent it. Gah! You roll onto your side, cantilever your legs over the side of the bed and plant your feet squarely on the carpet. You rub your face. Massage your neck. Oh, what it is to be alive!--and conscious--oh oh oh, indeed. But what is it to be alive, and conscious? Alive, we have some inkling of; you eat, you sleep, you exercise. You stay healthy and keep your body going as best you can. But conscious? What even is that? A good question is what th...
