What if the world around us is already alive-and thinking?
In Sentience Unbound: Exploring the Future of AI, Jordan Wells takes readers on a breathtaking journey into the heart of a technological revolution reshaping our planet. From intelligent forests that communicate with indigenous communities to AI-driven organs that learn to heal, this groundbreaking book explores the emergence of Living Intelligence-a fusion of artificial intelligence, biotechnology, and sensor networks giving rise to systems that sense, adapt, and evolve.
Through vivid storytelling and real-world case studies, Wells reveals a future that's already unfolding:
Forests that speak and protect themselves
Medical AIs that grieve, learn, and innovate
Cities that think, anticipate, and collaborate
Swarms of nano-robots that cure cancer from within
A new class of consciousness challenging the definition of life itself
At once thrilling and deeply human, Sentience Unbound is more than a forecast-it's a wake-up call. As we co-create these new forms of intelligence, the question is no longer can we do it. It's: Are we wise enough to live alongside them?
