articles What if the Library of Congress was a Quantum Reality? Because physics is about our being in the world and our connection to creation. To the universe. To God. And also to the great libraries. Crazy cool, I tell you.
articles The Infinitesimal Enigma Remember your origins: you were not made to live as brutes, but to follow virtue and knowledge.
articles Eyes in the "Black Mirror" And that is what the Black Mirror is all about. We do not see our face in that black screen. We see what is left of our consciousness.
reviews Steins;Gate and Time Travels: No time to die... twice. When I first saw the Steins;Gate anime, I was struck by the incredibly “slow” atmosphere. The surreal overlay of events immediately captivated me and I wasn't disappointed.
Isaac Asimov Isaac Asimov: Son of the Russian Winter You can’t write good science fiction if you know nothing. Work to earn a living, write for writing's sake. Be realistic.
articles Did Schrödinger choose the cat because it had nine lives? If I put the cat in the box with the poison, how do I know if it is dead or alive? It will always be in a state of being alive and dead at the same time until I lift the lid. But isn't that obvious? Actually, no.
reviews Studio 5, The Stars: Ballard’s 1961 short story that anticipated the issue of generative AI As early as 1961 (in the short story Studio 5, The Stars), Ballard anticipated one of the most topical and controversial issues of the day: The generation of texts with machines (or AIs).
articles Doctor Who: Bigger on the inside than the outside I don’t think it’s possible to explain it, how do you explain the implications of being a "Time Lord" with two hearts? A time-traveling humanoid who uses a blue police box as a time machine, and a screwdriver to solve the most bizarre and surreal situations?
articles Quantum mechanics is "not" a kind of magic Even scientists don't know yet how to interpret all the results of QM, but we can say for sure what QM is not: some kind of magic.
articles Cyberpunk, a rebel no more? Perhaps the new cyberpunk is losing the ability to create scenarios. Is it becoming just consumer fiction made to amaze the reader and that's all?
articles AI: Let's call them artificial, but not intelligent We should not think that everything an AI does is correct just because an AI does it. That is not true. It is not a logical system, but statistical.
articles The Uncanny Valley in a cyberpunk vision Robots like humans are more attractive, but only up to a certain point: the Uncanny valley.
articles Chinese Science Fiction: The Dragon's Gaze? SF writers in China seemed to want to use the typical narrative modes of the genre to criticize the trends of China's development. Is still so?
reviews Ballard’s High Rise: An unconscious diagram of a mysterious psyche Can people's behavior be influenced by a certain type of dwelling? Why do civilizations descend into chaos? Or, rather, why do individuals degenerate into chaos when they are placed in certain conditions?
reviews Star Wars: The Force was with George Lucas In 1977, a young director, George Lucas, released what would become the greatest science fiction saga of all time: Star Wars. But we should immediately think about the word "science fiction" in relation to these films: Myth, epic, narrative adventure also coexist in Star Wars.
articles Quantum mechanics and biology: Schrödinger’s robin Mysteries are fascinating because no matter how small they are, like microscopic quantum variations, their solution can be a gateway to incredible possibilities. Like the mystery of the Schrödinger’s robin redbreast.
mybooks Root Legacy: Cyberpunk/SciFi novel - English Edition FATAL ERROR. NO WAY OUT. RUN. Net -a brilliant, unruly hacker- must make a choice: trust the Swarm of voices activates in his head or not.
articles The Quantum Frontier: Why Quantum Science Fiction Can Open New Horizons Quantum physics may represent a revolution in the scientific paradigm, a change of vision and the opening of a horizon that science fiction can help to understand.
articles Hacker phenomenon: Against or within the System? With the system or against the system? Fighting against big corporations or working for them?
articles Time, space and Quantum Entanglement Entanglement is a correlation between different physical systems that establishes a relationship between their respective properties and is so substantial that it persists even when these systems, separated in space and time, no longer interact.
articles Artificial Intelligence and Hidden Learning: Are “Weights” a risk? If we still do not know exactly how artificial intelligence doses the weights in learning within the hidden layers, can we really predict its evolution?

articles AIs and neuromorphic processors: Will we be able to handle the 'exponential gap'? Is it now possible to partly reproduce the potential of the human brain in terms of computation, harnessing its speed and energy efficiency, due to the expanding knowledge of neural networks and neurobiology. But are we really capable of handling all this very rapid progress?
articles Blade Runner's Replicants: AIs, Identity, Memory and Neurorights There are risks connected to the use of robotics and AI technologies. Can an artificial intelligence create a Memory of itself? Remembrances? Lives?
