The Singularity
Imprint Academic (Verlag)
978-1-84540-907-4 (ISBN)
This volume represents the combination of two special issues of the Journal of Consciousness Studies on the topic of the technological singularity. Could artificial intelligence really out-think us, and what would be the likely repercussions if it could? Leading authors contribute to the debate, which takes the form of a target chapter by philosopher David Chalmers, plus commentaries from the likes of Daniel Dennett, Nick Bostrom, Ray Kurzweil, Ben Goertzel, Frank Tipler, among many others. Chalmers then responds to the commentators to round off the discussion.

He has also written for, among other publications, The New York Times, The Spectator, The Daily Telegraph, The Times, The Independent, The Tablet, The Times Literary Supplement, Literary Review and The Sun. David Chalmers is an Australian philosopher and cognitive scientist specializing in the area of philosophy of mind and philosophy of language.
