Synopsis "Cross Section"

What if consciousness is bigger than the brain that seems to contain it? Cross Section begins with a simple question and keeps pulling at it until the boundaries between consciousness, identity, perception, time, artificial intelligence, and reality itself start to blur. Colby Weiss explores the possibility that the brain may be less like a machine that creates consciousness and more like something that organizes or receives it. From there, the book moves into artificial minds, the possibility of machine consciousness, the risks of superintelligence, personal identity, memory, free will, and the strange fact that none of us ever experiences reality except through the narrow biological equipment we were born with. The argument eventually turns back toward us. If memories change, bodies change, perception is constructed, and even our sense of time depends on the mind experiencing it, what exactly is the thing we mean when we say “I”? Cross Section does not pretend to have the answer. It separates established science from speculation, takes its own objections seriously, and follows the questions wherever they lead. Eventually, they lead somewhere much smaller than the universe. A room. A familiar person. A memory that is no longer there. Part philosophy, part science, part personal exploration, Cross Section is about how much of reality may exist beyond the slice we are capable of seeing.
