商品描述
How AI is shaped by Western religious culture and universal existential aspirations--and why we think we need it in the first place. Artificial Religion argues that to fully understand our puzzling relation to AI, we must first look at the religious and existential background of our thinking about machines. Mapping some surprising connections between how we think about machines and Western religious narratives to political issues and existential human needs and aspirations, Mark Coeckelbergh looks back through history to offer a better understanding of how we think about machines and why we think we need them at all. The book is unique in talking not just about the myth of AI in terms of its technical limitations and the power of Big Tech, but in revealing the deeper cultural "grammar" of AI--that is, the religious patterns of thinking and existential aspirations that are often not visible but still haunt Western thinking and shape its technological culture. Moreover, this is done in a way that also sheds critical light on the power of AI.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
人工智慧如何受到西方宗教文化和普遍存在的渴望所塑造——以及我們為什麼一開始就認為我們需要它。
人工宗教主張,要充分理解我們與人工智慧之間令人困惑的關係,我們必須首先考察我們對機器的思考背後的宗教和存在背景。Mark Coeckelbergh 探索了我們如何思考機器與西方宗教敘事之間的驚人聯繫,並將其映射到政治議題和人類存在的需求與渴望上,回顧歷史以提供更好的理解,讓我們明白為什麼我們會這樣思考機器,以及我們為什麼認為我們需要它們。這本書的獨特之處在於,它不僅討論人工智慧的神話,涉及其技術限制和大型科技公司的權力,還揭示了人工智慧更深層的文化「語法」——即那些常常不易察覺但仍然影響西方思維並塑造其技術文化的宗教思維模式和存在渴望。此外,這本書的寫作方式也對人工智慧的權力提供了批判性的洞見。作者簡介
