This book covers topics such as ethics and morality identity and selfhood and broader issues about AI addressing questions about the individual social and existential impacts of such technologies. Through the works of science fiction authors such as Isaac Asimov Stanislaw Lem Ann Leckie Iain M. Banks and Martha Wells alongside key visual productions such as Ex Machina Westworld and Her contributions illustrate how science fiction might inform potential futures as well as acting as a springboard to bring disciplinary knowledge to bear on significant developments of Artificial Intelligence. Addressing a broad interdisciplinary audience both expert and non-expert readers gain an in-depth understanding of the wide range of pressing issues to which Artificial Intelligence gives rise and the ways in which science fiction narratives have been used to represent them.
