Live Discussion – Artificial Intelligence Versus the Living Mind
LIVE DISCUSSION AMONG A GROUP OF MEN GATHERING AROUND THE TABLE. The three of them — Aaron, John, and Martin — sit around a table.
Aaron’s laptop is open, displaying the Amazon page of Artificial Intelligence Versus the Living Mind by V. NOVA. The sleek, futuristic cover glows on the screen, catching their attention.
John: (leaning forward, intrigued)
Whoa, that title — Artificial Intelligence Versus the Living Mind — sounds deep. What’s it about?
Aaron: (smiling)
It’s a thought-provoking book. NOVA explores how artificial intelligence compares to the human mind — questioning if machines can ever truly think or if they’re just mimicking us.
Martin: (raising an eyebrow)
So, kind of like philosophy meets technology? That’s pretty cool.
John: (nodding)
Yeah, and the title itself pulls you in. Who’s the author?
Aaron:
Her name’s V. NOVA. She’s one of our clients — we helped publish this book for her.
Martin: (grinning)
You did? Nice! The title alone feels powerful. It sounds like she’s diving into some real questions about consciousness and AI.
John: (chuckling)
Only issue is, I barely get time to sit and read these days. I wish there was an audiobook version — I’d totally listen to it on my way to work.
Martin: (agreeing)
Same here. I’m more into audiobooks lately. Makes it easier to stay caught up while multitasking.
Aaron: (smiling knowingly)
Yeah, I hear you. I actually encouraged her to create one — but right now, there isn’t an audiobook version yet. It’s something we’re planning for the future though.
John: (snapping his fingers)
That’s a great idea. A topic like this really works in audio — you can think along while listening.
Martin: (nodding)
Exactly. It’s the kind of book you’d want to hear again just to catch all the details.
Aaron: (closing the laptop)
That’s what I told her — it’s not just a book, it’s a conversation about what it means to be alive and self-aware.
John: (smiling)
Well, when the audiobook comes out, I’m all in.
Martin: (grinning)
Count me too. I’m curious to hear her perspective.
Aaron: (laughs)
You got it. I’ll let you guys know once we start recording.
The room quiets for a moment, and the three exchange thoughtful looks — each one pondering the question behind the title: Can artificial intelligence ever possess a living mind?
