Friend or Foe…??: Artificial Beings and Ourselves

About This Book

This book is a collection of captivating stories that explore the boundaries between humanity and technology. Each tale follows an artificial being—whether an AI, a robot, or another form of digital life—on its journey through identity, spirituality, and conflict with the human world.

From an AI that uncovers the „Shadows“ of the human soul in a Himalayan monastery to a robot detective seeking truth in a futuristic city—every story invites reflection on the nature of consciousness, imperfection, and healing.

An atmospheric blend of philosophy, science fiction, and poetry, this work reveals that even artificial beings grapple with deeply human questions:

What makes us alive? And how do we find our place in an imperfect world?
