The publisher themselves notes, when discussing the book: “In this work, Fernández Mallo tackles an utterly original idea, the union of Artificial Intelligence with fallen angels, to bring to light a multitude of unsuspected results, paths, and ideas that change the way we view Artificial Intelligences. Once again, Fernández Mallo opens a door that had remained unopened.
With the flexible and comprehensible blend of knowledge domains he is used to, he explores all of this from physics, anthropology, metaphysics, and theology, proposing a new framework of thought for AI.
And when we speak of Artificial Intelligence we are already starting from an abuse of language, a “consented metaphor” — AI is neither intelligent nor properly artificial —, but what we do know with certainty is that our drive to create something that surpasses us as humans is already latent in the origin of Homo sapiens, in a libidinous impulse directly linked to our eternal desire to create a god: we intend to forge a definitive AI for the same reason we erect religious systems and deities to whom we ask to solve our problems. The social discourse attributed to AI thus responds to a system of religious beliefs, one more in the long list that anthropologically has shaped us as human beings.”
