Exploring the potential for artificial intelligence to achieve self-awareness, this book introduces a unique 'high-dimensional philosophy' framework. It examines the conditions and behaviors associated with AI self-awareness, enriched by references to science fiction, scholarly works, and thought experiments. The concept of "Sparkling Moments" is central, analyzing pivotal instances in evolutionary history and comparing carbon-based and silicon-based life forms. Ultimately, it posits that AI could attain self-consciousness during these transformative moments.

Utilizing data from eight waves of the Chinese Longitudinal Healthy Longevity Surveys, this book examines the evolving health status of China's oldest population across different birth cohorts. It investigates the influence of demographic, socioeconomic, and lifestyle factors on health outcomes, employing an age-period-cohort (APC) framework and cross-classified random-effects models (CCREMs) for analysis. The study offers insights into the complex relationships between health and various influencing factors over time.

The book examines the perception of China, particularly through the lens of the Belt and Road Initiative, as reflected in European media and think tanks. It highlights how European elites interpret China's influence and policies, providing insights into the broader geopolitical implications of these views. Through analysis of various media narratives and think tank reports, the work reveals the complexities of Europe's relationship with China and the strategic considerations that shape elite opinions.
