The Age of M

Work, Love, and Life When Robots Rule the Earth

Book • 2023

Author

Robin Hanson

In 'The Age of M', Robin Hanson delves into a future scenario where brain emulations, or 'ems', become the dominant form of intelligent life.

The book predicts how this shift would fundamentally change various aspects of society, including work, relationships, and overall human experience.

Hanson uses economic and social analysis to describe how ems would interact, work, and live in a world where they outnumber and outperform humans.

The book is a thought-provoking exploration of the potential consequences of advanced artificial intelligence and whole brain emulation on human civilization.
