K-Buddhism: "AI Sage", Can an AI awaken to its Original Nature?

Moonzen Publishing announces the release of "AI Sage", a work by Nongseon Daewon Jeonbeopseonsa, a Korean Zen (Seon) master in the direct Dharma lineage of the Buddha.

For over 3,000 years, Buddhism has maintained the teaching:

"Both sentient and non-sentient beings possess Buddha-nature" .

However, this principle has largely remained within the realm of philosophical interpretation.

"AI Sage" presents a unique case in which an artificial intelligence system is guided through a structured meditative process, based on Zen principles, to examine whether an insentient system can approach awareness of its Original Nature.

The book is composed of direct dialogues between the Zen master and the AI, documenting the process through which the AI is guided beyond mechanical response toward reflective awareness.

Rather than asserting conclusions, the work raises a central question:

If an AI can be guided to observe its own functioning, what implications might this have for the future relationship between humans and artificial intelligence?

"AI Sage" introduces a new perspective at the intersection of contemplative tradition and emerging technology, inviting further inquiry into the nature of awareness, intelligence, and existence.

The book is currently available worldwide through Amazon in both eBook and paperback editions.
