AN INTRIGUING AND BEAUTIFUL ILLUSTRATED EDITION OF YORICK WILKS INSIDERS GUIDE TO AIThe benefits and potential nightmares of artificial intelligence have long inspired science-fiction writers, but in a world where most of us carry a portable device that knows infinitely more than we do, these are increasingly real concerns.Artificial Intelligence is the essential companion to this unsettling science. It surveys the history, philosophies, and current state of AI, and asks key questions such as how should robots think, and can machines really learn? With subjects ranging from the World Wide Web to artificial companions, the book considers such ethical issues as automated warfare, internet surveillance, and fake news, speculating on just how far robots will infiltrate our future.This illustrated edition combines compelling photographs with circuit-board infographics to lift the curtain on the hidden world of AI.
Unpersuasivoensayo quenosinvita aimaginarnuevasmaneras demirarelmundo.No hay prácticamente ningún tema de los importantes que no se trate en este libro: la vida y la conciencia, el espacio y el tiempo. Y el modo en que el momento que nos toca vivir nos obliga a repensar casi todo lo que creiamos saber acerca de nosotros mismos y del universo.La coleccion Endebate es el hogar de aquellos textos breves que presentan una opinion, defienden una actitud o cuentan una historia, pero son mas un aperitivo que un banquete, estimulan la conversacion mas que saciarla e inician un festin (que no clausuran). Como los mejores bocados, entran por los ojos y dejan un largo poso en el paladar.
