About this product

Product Information

He surveys what has been achieved so far and looks at future possibilities for generating autonomous, intelligent, even conscious living things. The fundamental questions he tackles range widely: what is life? What should the minds, brains and bodies of these new life forms be like? What philosophical guidelines and computational frameworks are necessary? How much can we learn from the evolution of natural life forms? What are the practical, social and ethical implications of this research? At the heart of this work the author's unique imaginative vision - a vision based on his experience of making some of the most advanced artificial life currently available. The secret of the success, he argues, lies in emulating nature's ways and working from the bottom up.
