During 2010-12, Dr. Goertzel conducted a series of textual interviews with researchers in various areas of cutting-edge science -- artificial general intelligence, nanotechnology, life extension, neurotechnology, collective intelligence, mind uploading, body modification, neuro-spiritual transformation, and more. These interviews were published online in H+ Magazine, and are here gathered together in a single volume. The resulting series of dialogues treats a variety of social, futurological and scientific topics in a way that is accessible to the educated non-scientist, yet also deep and honest to the subtleties of the topics being discussed. \u003cb\u003eBetween Ape and Artilect\u003c\/b\u003e is a must-read if you want the real views, opinions, ideas, muses and arguments of the people creating our future. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e Itamar Arel: AGI via Deep Learning \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Pei Wang: What Do You Mean by \"AI\"? \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Joscha Bach: Understanding the Mind \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Hugo DeGaris: Will There be Cyborgs? \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e DeGaris Interviews Goertzel: Seeking the Sputnik of AGI \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Linas Vepstas: AGI, Open Source and Our Economic Future \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Joel Pitt: The Benefits of Open Source for AGI \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Randal Koene: Substrate-Independent Minds \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e João Pedro de Magalhães: Ending Aging \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Aubrey De Grey: Aging and AGI \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e David Brin: Sousveillance \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e J.
