Consciousness is Curvature envisions consciousnesshuman and artificialas a dynamic curvature of informational and computational spaces, drawing parallels with the theory of general relativitys malleable spacetime and with quantum theorys probabilistic nature. This collection of philosophical essays on artificial intelligence (AI) sees intelligence as a universal, relational phenomenon, transcending the binary of human minds versus thinking machines. It explores how AI, from narrow systems to potential Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) and Superintelligence (ASI), will affect humanitys future and its very connection to the cosmos, reshaping human understanding of awareness and meaning. While confronting the risksuncontrolled systems, amplified biases, and the erosion of human essencethe book rejects techno-pessimisms dystopian tropes. Instead, it offers a balanced vision, embracing AIs potential to elevate human existence and deepen humanitys exploration of the cosmos. These meditative, forward-looking essays invite readers to ponder the possibilities and perils of AIs future, while advocating a nuanced approach to a technology that will inevitably redefine humanitys place in the universe.
