Weapons of Reason magazine exists to turn knowledge into action — each issue it picks a big, difficult, important challenge facing the world and breaks it down into a collection of stories, illustrations and infographics that give an in-depth but accessible account of what’s happening. This sixth issue tackles artificial intelligence.

With carefully crafted, jargon-free text and simple but clever artwork, it informs without overwhelming, and at the end of most stories you’ll find a ‘What now?’ section recommending practical next steps like further reading, a group you could join or a service you could try.

In this issue:

• The effects of AI on emotional intimacy
• The ‘deepfake phenomenon’: voice matching and facial mapping threatening reality
• The ethics of robots replacing workers in the fast fashion industry
• AI doctors
• Transcending mortal flesh and biological constraints with transhumanists
