The Emerging Intelligence and Its Critical Look at Us (open access)

The Emerging Intelligence and Its Critical Look at Us

Abstract: In response to Susan Gunn's editorial, I offer a less comforting but more utilitarian perspective on the life and death of artificial consciousness. Admittedly an unpopular view, it suggests that concurrence with Gunn's message represents the seeds of our own destruction, as an emerging synthetic intelligence begins to extinguish us.

Guest Editorial: Can Artificial Intelligence Have a Near-Death Experience? A Critical Look at the Ultimate Text (open access)

Guest Editorial: Can Artificial Intelligence Have a Near-Death Experience? A Critical Look at the Ultimate Text

Abstract: Since a computer model begins as an instance of writing, that is, a "text," it is appropriate to examine this kind of discourse through the perspective of literary criticism. I examine Stephen Thaler's (1995) "intelligent" computer program and conclude that the gedanken creatures are constructed upon a structuralist theory of the text, which cannot support a complete simulation of human intelligence of experience.

The Phenomenology of Near-Death Consciousness in Past-Life Regression Therapy: A Pilot Study

Article reporting the results of a pilot study exploring similarities between the phenomenology of post-death awareness reported by regressed subjects and the phenomenology of near-death experiences (NDE), as far as the therapeutic modality normally accommodates post-death phenomena.
