Beschreibung

<p><b>'A terrific book</b> - <b>essential reading</b> for everyone seeking to make sense of Artificial Intelligence' Professor Sir Adrian Smith, Director and Chief Executive of the Alan Turing Institute<br><b><br>In this myth-busting guide to AI past and present, one of the world's leading researchers shows why our fears for the future are misplaced.</b><br><br>The ultimate dream of AI is to build machines that are like us: conscious and self-aware. While this remains a remote possibility, rapid progress in AI is already transforming our world. Yet the public debate is still largely centred on unlikely prospects, from sentient machines to dystopian robot takeovers.<br><br>In this lively and clear-headed guide, Michael Wooldridge challenges the prevailing narrative, <b>revealing how the hype distracts us from both the more immediate risks that this technology poses - from algorithmic bias to fake news - and the true life-changing potential of the field</b>. <i>The Road to Conscious Machines </i>elucidates the discoveries of AI's greatest pioneers from Alan Turing to Demis Hassabis, and what today's researchers actually think and do.<br><br>'Nobody understands the past, the present, the promise and the peril of this new technology better than Michael Wooldridge.<b> The definitive account</b>' <b>Matt Ridley</b>, author of <i>The Rational Optimist</i><br><br><b>'Effortlessly readable. The perfect guide to the history and future of AI' </b>Tom Chivers, author of <i>The AI Does Not Hate You</i></p>
