Paperback. Coined by artist and media researcher Bill Seaman, neosentience describes a new branch of scientific inquiry related to artificial intelligence. This volume explores the groundbreaking work of Seaman and theoretical physicist Otto E. Rossler in exploring the potential of an intelligent robotic entity possessed of a form of sentience that ever more closely resembles that of a human being. Individual chapters approach the concept from a range of disciplines, including psychology, neuroscience, linguistics, and the arts. Neosentience is a burgeoning area of interest, and this book encourages readers to reflect on how we experience and interpret the world, how memory works, and what it is to be human. Neosentience, a branch of scientific inquiry related to artificial intelligence, was first suggested in a paper by Bill Seaman as part of an embodied robotic paradigm arising out of theoretical research with Otto E Rossler. This book presents short interdisciplinary chapters that approach Neosentience from many different perspectives.
