-Titulo Original : Superintelligence Paths, Dangers, Strategies
-Fabricante :
Oxford University Press
-Descripcion Original:
A New York Times bestseller Superintelligence asks the questions: What happens when machines surpass humans in general intelligence? Will artificial agents save or destroy us? Nick Bostrom lays the foundation for understanding the future of humanity and intelligent life. The human brain has some capabilities that the brains of other animals lack. It is to these distinctive capabilities that our species owes its dominant position. If machine brains surpassed human brains in general intelligence, then this new superintelligence could become extremely powerful - possibly beyond our control. As the fate of the gorillas now depends more on humans than on the species itself, so would the fate of humankind depend on the actions of the machine superintelligence. But we have one advantage: we get to make the first move. Will it be possible to construct a seed Artificial Intelligence, to engineer initial conditions so as to make an intelligence explosion survivable? How could one achieve a controlled detonation? This profoundly ambitious and original book breaks down a vast track of difficult intellectual terrain. After an utterly engrossing journey that takes us to the frontiers of thinking about the human condition and the future of intelligent life, we find in Nick Bostroms work nothing less than a reconceptualization of the essential task of our time. Review I highly recommend this book --Bill GatesTerribly important ... groundbreaking... extraordinary sagacity and clarity, enabling him to combine his wide-ranging knowledge over an impressively broad spectrum of disciplines - engineering, natural sciences, medicine, social sciences and philosophy - into a comprehensible whole... If this book gets the reception that it deserves, it may turn out the most important alarm bell since Rachel Carsons Silent Spring from 1962, or ever. --Olle Haggstrom, Professor of Mathematical StatisticsNick Bostroms excellent book Superintelligence is the best thing Ive seen on this topic. It is well worth a read. --Sam Altman, President of Y Combinator and Co-Chairman of OpenAIWorth reading.... We need to be super careful with AI. Potentially more dangerous than nukes --Elon Musk, Founder of SpaceX and TeslaNick Bostrom makes a persuasive case that the future impact of AI is perhaps the most important issue the human race has ever faced. Instead of passively drifting, we need to steer a course. Superintelligence charts the submerged rocks of the future with unprecedented detail. It marks the beginning of a new era. --Stuart Russell, Professor of Computer Science, University of California, BerkleyThis superb analysis by one of the worlds clearest thinkers tackles one of humanitys greatest challenges: if future superhuman artificial intelligence becomes the biggest event in human history, then how can we ensure that it doesnt become the last? --Professor Max Tegmark, MITValuable. The implications of introducing a second intelligent species onto Earth are far-reaching enough to deserve hard thinking --The EconomistThere is no doubting the force of [Bostroms] arguments...the problem is a research challenge worthy of the next generations best mathematical talent. Human civilisation is at stake. --Clive Cookson, Financial TimesThose disposed to dismiss an AI takeover as science fiction may think again after reading this original and well-argued book. --Martin Rees, Past President, Royal Society Every intelligent person should read it. --Nils Nilsson, Artificial Intelligence Pioneer, Stanford University About the Author Nick Bostrom is Swedish-born philosopher and polymath with a background in theoretical physics, computational neuroscience, logic, and artificial intelligence, as well as philosophy.
