Neurobiology and Artificial Intelligence: Medical, Social, and Ethical Implications
explores the dynamic intersection of neurobiology and artificial intelligence (AI),
investigating the scientific, philosophical, and ethical implications of these rapidly
evolving fields. By blending cutting-edge research with thought-provoking discussions,
this book aims to make complex topics accessible to an interdisciplinary audience,
from researchers and upper graduate students eager to understand how AI and
neuroscience shape our understanding of intelligence, creativity, learning, and the
human condition.
