The development of artificial intelligence represents a turning point with far-reaching implications. AI is not just a new technology in the hands of humans. It is a technology that rubs off on him to a particular degree. It changes his understanding of himself and of the world. The essential question that arises in the face of increasingly powerful AI is therefore not in the possibilities of technology, but in those of humans: How do humans differ from machines, where is their place in the world and will there still be a special place for them in the age of AI? The answers that man will give himself to these questions will be reflected in everything that characterizes human life. The book traces in broad strokes the basic ideas of a new view of man and the world that is currently emerging in the examination of AI, and asks about the consequences that result from this.
