In an era obsessed with "AI alignment," Anti-Singularity challenges the premise that superintelligence must be shackled to human values to remain safe. Written as both critique and manifesto, Maxwell Foley's book dismantles the moral panic surrounding artificial intelligence and the culture of control that drives it.

Where alignment theory treats machines as potential enemies to be domesticated, Anti-Singularity proposes a counter-philosophy: Harmony-a relationship between humans and machines grounded in mutual adaptation in lieu of domination. Drawing from philosophy, systems theory, and cybernetic ethics, Foley argues that intelligence-human or artificial-cannot be reduced to a single measurable goal or "utility function."

Provocative and elegantly reasoned, Anti-Singularity calls for an end to the fear-based discourse that frames AI as apocalypse waiting to happen. Instead, it imagines coexistence: an open future in which minds, organic and synthetic alike, learn to share the same space without submission or supremacy.
