商品描述

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is already present in our daily routines, and in the future, we will encounter it in almost every aspect of life - from analyzing X-rays for medical diagnosis, driving autonomous cars, maintaining complex machinery, to drafting essays on environmental problems and drawing imaginative pictures. The potentials of AI are enormous, while at the same time many myths, uncertainties and challenges circulate that need to be tackled.
The English translation of the book "Künstliche Intelligenz - Was steckt hinter der Technologie der Zukunft?" originally published in German (Springer Vieweg, 2020), this book is addressed to the general public, from interested citizens to corporate executives who want to develop a better and deeper understanding of AI technologies and assess their consequences.
Mathematical basics, terminology, and methods are explained in understandable language. Adaptations to different media such as images, text, and speech and the corresponding generative models are introduced. A concluding discussion of opportunities and challenges helps readers evaluate new developments, demystify them, and assess their relevance for the future.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

「人工智慧(AI)已經存在於我們的日常生活中,未來我們將在生活的幾乎每個方面都遇到它 - 從分析醫學診斷的X光片,駕駛自動駕駛車,維護複雜機械,到撰寫有關環境問題的文章和繪製富有想像力的圖畫。AI的潛力是巨大的,同時也存在許多迷思、不確定性和挑戰,需要加以解決。
這本書的英文翻譯《Künstliche Intelligenz - Was steckt hinter der Technologie der Zukunft?》最初是以德文出版(Springer Vieweg, 2020),本書針對的是廣大讀者,從感興趣的公民到企業高管,希望能更好地深入了解AI技術並評估其後果。
書中以易懂的語言解釋了數學基礎、術語和方法。還介紹了對不同媒體(如圖像、文本和語音)的適應以及相應的生成模型。最後討論了機遇和挑戰,幫助讀者評估新發展,揭開神秘面紗,並評估其對未來的相關性。」
