Conversation with Perplexity (a dialogue about and with artificial intelligence)

This book not only addresses artificial intelligence as a theme, but also makes it an active part of the creative process. Instead of writing about it, the author chooses to write with it. Thus, this hybrid work is born, structured as a dialogue between person and machine.

Throughout its pages, Conversation with Perplexity unfolds as a series of dialogued encounters between the author and a real artificial intelligence application, which answers questions, argues, and even allows moments of humor, doubt, and reflection. The result is a reading that combines the rigor of thought with the constant surprise of an interlocution that is not entirely human, yet not completely alien either.

It is the first time—so far as is known in Catalan literature and possibly beyond—that a work starts from this premise: questioning artificial intelligence about itself. The book invites the reader to witness a kind of intellectual experiment where fundamental questions—what is consciousness? can a machine think? what role does creativity play?—cease to be mere speculations and become shared arguments between two voices of different natures.

From this encounter emerges a new way of thinking about the relationship between humans and technology. The dialogue format, carefully crafted and rich in nuance, allows the work to avoid both naive techno-enthusiasm and apocalyptic rejection. The author, true to his reflective style, keeps alive an intellectual tension between curiosity and skepticism, while the artificial intelligence—the Perplexity of the title—contributes its own logic, unexpectedly coherent and even poetic.

A work for our time

We live in an era in which artificial intelligence is no longer just science fiction, but a daily reality that influences the way we read, write, and think. Conversation with Perplexityarrives at the right moment to reconsider the foundations of this coexistence.

It is not a technical essay nor a philosophical treatise in the classical sense, but a living work that invites active reading and shared reflection. Its dialogic structure recalls the ancient Platonic dialogues, but with a contemporary irony: the disciple and the master are no longer two humans, but an organic mind and one of silicon.

The simplicity with which the author guides the conversation allows any reader, without needing technical knowledge, to delve into the complexity of the issues discussed. The language is clear and approachable, but the ideas presented are profound and may shake more than one conviction about what it means to think.

A literary novelty with a vocation for debate

The publication of this book is more than a cultural event: it is an invitation to debate the future of literary creation and thought. If, as the author suggests, an artificial intelligence can dialogue with us and contribute to generating new ideas, what does authorship really mean? Where do the boundaries between inspiration and programming lie?
