Novacene
The Coming Age of Hyperintelligence (The MIT Press)
James Lovelock
The Novacene theory created by environmental thinker James Lovelock offers a fascinating future for life on Earth. He predicts that humans and artificial intelligence will team up to help the planet thrive, as a new age - the Novacene - replaces the Anthropocene. In this age, ultra-intelligent beings will emerge from artificial intelligence systems, dependent on a healthy planet, and see humans as we see plants. Lovelock stresses the importance of Earth's intelligence thriving, as we could be the sole beings capable of understanding the cosmos. This groundbreaking theory offers a compelling perspective on the future of life on our planet.
