An interview with leading AI researcher, author, and TED speaker Blaise Agüera y Arcas about his new book, Who Are We Now? – an exploration of how biology, ecology, sexuality, history, and culture have intertwined to create a dynamic “us” that can neither be called natural nor artificial.
Identity politics occupies the front line in today’s culture wars, pitting generations against each other, and progressive cities against the rural traditions of our past. Rich in data and detail, Who Are We Now? goes beyond today’s headlines to connect our current reality to a larger more-than-human story.
The book is available December 19 via Hat & Beard Press.
