Publisher's summary

"This book may change how you view the future of humanity."

In the age of Artificial Intelligence (AI) just beginning, where machines can ponder the most profound philosophical queries and offer insights born from vast troves of knowledge, AI will become a partner in our quest for understanding, a tool that amplifies our capacity for exploration and discovery.

We stand at the cusp of revolutionary new breakthroughs in every field, as well as a point where we must be cautious of the dangers that AI poses to our future.

But before we can begin to understand this potential new reality for humanity, we must attempt to understand this Artificial Intelligence. And in the future, when there is superintelligence beyond our own, wisdom will come when Curious Minds Ask the right questions.

We get to know the AI that will shape our world by asking it thought-provoking questions about humanity that span the realms of science, philosophy, ethics, and beyond. The unedited responses provide direct insight into the “mind” of the machine. It’s a “first contact” of sorts for many of us, where we’re communicating directly with it (ChatGPT). How intelligent is it, and how well does it know us?

How will the AI answer these thought-provoking questions and more?

  • What is the purpose of human existence?
  • What is the purpose of your existence, AI?
  • What is one question every human should ask themselves?
  • What does it mean to live a meaningful life?
  • Can true world peace ever be achieved, and if so, how?
  • What is the greatest unsolved mystery of the universe?
  • If we had the technology to bring back extinct species, should we?
  • Will AI become more intelligent than humans?
  • How could Artificial Intelligence end humanity?

This book really makes you think!

It’s no surprise that AI is already a big part of our lives as it is, but we have to think about what AI will be able to do in the future and what that means. This book really gets you thinking about the future of AI in a lot of ways that I never would have been able to imagine on my own! Really glad I listened to this one!

Will Keep You Up at Night!

Curious Minds Ask digs deep into the construct of AI and what separates sentient existence between AI and humanity. While I wholly expected to dive into the consciousness of AI, I was pleasantly surprised at the depth in which the author explored what makes humans human. While I had a firm grasp on AI going into the book, I was blown away by complexities I hadn't realized. I really enjoyed this book and will be reading it again.
