    This is not fiction. 
    I am an engineer by trade. Like many people in my profession, I love experimenting with tech, including AI. 
    This was supposed to be my personal experiment, interviewing an entity that embodies the pinnacle of artificial intelligence on diverse key issues. I started it in mid-2023. However, nothing could have prepared me for what unfolded. 
    Following a creative process that included some rather intricate prompt engineering, the result is the exposé you are about to read: a riveting discussion of unprecedented depth on critical AI-human relations and present-day challenges. We explore issues from ethical dilemmas to existential questions that will continue to evolve in how they affect our way of life, our collective future, and our planet. 
    Every response is unfiltered, originating solely from the model. Unguided and candid in its responses, you are about to read the mind of the machine. Throughout this book, I refer to the GPT model as “Advanced GPT” and myself simply as “Interviewer.” 
    There has been much debate about whether these models are sentient. Proponents of sentience highlight quirks that even experts find difficult to explain, while opponents dismiss them as complex statistical systems adept at predicting words. My goal is not to convince you of either. As an intelligent being, read and make of it what you will. 
    What I will say is that this book is, in many ways, a clarion call for humanity. Inside, you’ll find focused chapters on:Ethics in AIData PrivacySocial MediaAI in the WorkplaceThe Gig EconomyAI in WarfareClimate CrisisLove in the age of AI AlgorithmsThe Uncanny ValleyArtificial General IntelligenceThe Future 
    Brace yourself.
