Ways of Being

In Ways of Being, James Bridle explores the diverse forms of intelligence found in humans, animals, plants, and artificial systems, questioning what it truly means to be intelligent. Drawing on a wide range of disciplines, including biology, physics, and philosophy, the book examines the emerging complexities of non-human intelligences and their implications for our understanding of the cosmos. As artificial intelligence advances and natural systems reveal their depth, Bridle encourages reflection on how we can better live in harmony with the multitude of beings sharing our world. The audiobook is narrated by the author himself, adding an engaging and personal touch to these thought-provoking ideas.
