  In this 2024 conversation with Justine Willis Toms, Christopher Brown points our that our urban landscape is dotted with abandoned lots. We’ve all noticed them—or not noticed them. These seemingly derelict spaces are often filled with left-behind concrete slabs and littered with old tires, broken-down and rusting washing machines, and other detritus of our throwaway culture. But if you stop and look past the trash, you’ll notice grass and vines are slowly reclaiming these marginal spaces. In that reclaiming, wildlife is eking out a healthful existence outside the human realm. These abandoned places where wild nature collides with the rubble of human domination host a surprising number of species.  
  Christopher Brown is an accomplished lawyer who has worked on two Supreme Court confirmation hearings. He has also been general counsel for several technology companies. His varied experiences span from restoring prairies to reporting from Central American war zones. His current nonfiction book explores the natural world in urban settings. He is the author of:Failed State: A Novel (Eos 2020)Rule of Capture: A Novel (Eos 2019)The Tropic of Kansas: A Novel (Harper Voyager 2017)The Natural History of Empty Lots: Field Notes from Urban Edgelands, Back Alleys, and Other Wild Places (Timber Press 2024).

  HuMachine Era: Artificial...

  Humachine Era by Professor Madee Salehi offers a compelling exploration of how artificial intelligence is reshaping the very fabric of society. Drawing on his unique background in sociology, computer science, computer engineering, and AI, Salehi examines the profound transformation underway across our most essential institutions, work, education, politics, and everyday life. 
  Written in an accessible, reader-friendly style, the book demystifies AI technology, explaining in clear terms what artificial intelligence is, how it works, and why its capabilities, while impressive, remain fundamentally different from human thinking. Salehi argues that AI does not truly “think” but instead relies on intensive mathematical computation, a distinction with profound implications. 
  At the heart of Humachine Era is a pressing sociological question: What happens when AI begins replacing human workers in offices, factories, schools, and other institutions? Salehi warns that society must urgently redefine employment as the primary source of livelihood and expand human rights frameworks to meet this challenge. Without adaptation, he cautions, we risk social unrest and political instability. 
  Blending technical insight with sociological foresight, Humachine Era is essential listening for anyone seeking to understand the nonlinear, rapidly accelerating changes that AI is bringing to our world—and what we must do to navigate them.
