Measure and Impose: A Social History of Artificial Intelligence
14.99 €
Artificial intelligence seeks to "solve the riddle of rationality", the key to which lies in the secret logic of the mind or the underlying physiology of the brain - so the conventional wisdom goes. Philosopher of science Matteo Pasquinelli disagrees with this theory and builds his own, which is based on the history of labor automation, the race for productivity, and society's desire to constantly evaluate human life. By tracing the history of AI - from the first prototype calculator in the late 18th century to today's machine learning, image recognition, and tracking algorithms - the author shows why AI has no chance of becoming a malevolent "superintelligence".
