Summary

In "A New Era of Thought," Charles Howard Hinton presents a groundbreaking exploration of the intersection between mathematics, psychology, and philosophy. Written during the early 20th century, this work reflects Hinton's innovative literary style, utilizing a blend of analytical rigor and abstract reasoning. Hinton challenges conventional perceptions of reality, encouraging readers to transcend traditional thought patterns and embrace a holistic understanding of existence. His integration of spatial imagination and metaphysical inquiry situates the book within the broader context of contemporary philosophical movements, making it a critical text for understanding the evolution of thought during this transformative era. Charles Howard Hinton was a polymath deeply engaged with the sciences and the arts, which profoundly influenced his writing. Known for his ideas on the fourth dimension, Hinton's work was informed by his experiences as a mathematician and his interactions with influential thinkers of his time, including Alfred North Whitehead and Bertrand Russell. His intent to merge abstract concepts with practical applications reflects a deep-seated quest for enlightenment and understanding that pervades his oeuvre. I highly recommend "A New Era of Thought" to readers intrigued by the complexities of human cognition and the boundaries of mathematical philosophy. Hinton's visionary ideas will not only stimulate intellectual curiosity but also challenge you to reconsider the very nature of reality itself, making it essential for anyone seeking comprehension of modern philosophical discourse.

    Chat-GPT, humanoid robotics, and self-driving cars are just a few of the things that are changing our everyday lives. The rapid advancement of AI is eroding one by one all the cornerstones considered unique of human nature: language, consciousness, creativity, and moral responsibility. The book argues that the revolution we are facing is driven by Alan Turing's "vision". This vision rests on the idea that intelligence is not an intrinsic property of human beings, but is a way in which matter is functionally organized and an attribute we are naturally inclined to ascribe to certain entities. For decades we have pretended that this idea does not have the corrosive power that it actually does, perhaps more so than the Copernican and Darwinian revolutions. But now, given the achievements of new forms of computing based on deep learning and predictive coding, the most common intuitions can no longer avoid the dangerous Turing idea. 
 
The book is intended for scholars, researchers, and listeners intrigued by the intersections across disciplines interested in understanding the philosophical, ethical, and social implications of Artificial Intelligence and its impact on human nature.
