商品描述

The philosopher Spinoza once asserted that no one knows what a body can do, conceiving an intrinsic bodily power with unknown limits. Similarly, we can ask ourselves about Artificial Intelligence (AI): To what extent is the development of intelligence limited by its technical and material substrate? In other words, what can AI do? The answer is analogous to Spinoza's: Nobody knows the limit of AI.

Critically considering this issue from philosophical, interdisciplinary, and engineering perspectives, respectively, this book assesses the scope and pertinence of AI technology and explores how it could bring about both a better and more unpredictable future.

What AI Can Do highlights, at both the theoretical and practical levels, the cross-cutting relevance that AI is having on society, appealing to students of engineering, computer science, and philosophy, as well as all who hold a practical interest in the technology.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

荷蘭哲學家斯賓諾莎曾經主張,沒有人知道身體能做到什麼,他構想了一種內在的身體力量,其極限未知。同樣地,我們可以問自己關於人工智慧(AI):智能的發展在技術和物質基礎上有多大限制?換句話說,AI能做到什麼?答案類似於斯賓諾莎的觀點:沒有人知道AI的極限。

本書從哲學、跨學科和工程的角度批判性地考慮這個問題,評估了AI技術的範圍和相關性,並探討了它如何可能帶來更好且更不可預測的未來。

《AI能做什麼》在理論和實踐層面上突顯了AI對社會的跨領域重要性,吸引了工程、計算機科學和哲學專業的學生,以及所有對這項技術有實際興趣的人。
