ONE OF BARACK OBAMA'S RECOMMENDED BOOKS ON AI * FINANCIAL TIMES BEST BOOKS OF 2023 From Dr. Fei-Fei Li, one of TIME's 100 MOST INFLUENTIAL in AI, comes "a powerful plea for keeping humanity at the centre of our latest technological transformation" (Financial Times). Wired called Dr. Fei-Fei Li “one of a tiny group of scientists—a group perhaps small enough to fit around a kitchen table—who are responsible for AI’s recent remarkable advances.” Known to the world as the creator of ImageNet, a key catalyst of modern artificial intelligence, Dr. Li has spent more than two decades at the forefront of the field. But her career in science was improbable from the start. As immigrants, her family faced a difficult transition from China’s middle class to American poverty. And their lives were made all the harder as they struggled to care for her ailing mother, who was working tirelessly to help them all gain a foothold in their new land. Fei-Fei’s adolescent knack for physics endured, however, and positioned her to make a crucial contribution to the breakthrough we now call AI, placing her at the center of a global transformation. Over the last decades, her work has brought her face-to-face with the extraordinary possibilities—and the extraordinary dangers—of the technology she loves. The Worlds I See is a story of science in the first person, documenting one of the century’s defining moments from the inside. It provides a riveting story of a scientist at work and a thrillingly clear explanation of what artificial intelligence actually is—and how it came to be. Emotionally raw and intellectually uncompromising, this book is a testament not only to the passion required for even the most technical scholarship but also to the curiosity forever at its heart.
The Promise and Peril of AI and IA
How should public theologians and social ethicists assess, anticipate, and amend the projected path taken by Artificial Intelligence and Intelligence Amplification? With the advent of generative AI along with large language models, suddenly our techie whiz kids are sounding the fire alarm. Will a Frankenstein monster escape its creator's design? Will more highly evolved superintelligence render today's human race extinct? Is this generation morally obligated to give birth to a tomorrow in which we outdated humans can no longer participate? This book collects foresighted analyses and recommendations from computer scientists, neuroscientists, AI ethicists, along with Christian and Muslim theologians.
Understanding Generative AI in a Cultural Context: Artificial Myths and Human Realities
The interplay between artificial intelligence (AI) and cultural dynamics is reshaping communication practices in the digital era, highlighting how technology and culture influence each other. Generative AI technologies, deeply embedded in cultural contexts, are transforming how individuals and societies interact, share ideas, and create meaning. Understanding these interactions requires diverse methodologies and perspectives to capture the complexity of AI’s role in cultural evolution. This exploration helps illuminate the broader societal impact of AI, offering insights into its potential to shape communication and cultural practices worldwide. Understanding Generative AI in a Cultural Context: Artificial Myths and Human Realities explores the nuanced interactions between AI, cultural dynamics, and communication practices within the digital landscape. It offers a multidisciplinary examination of how generative AI technologies are reshaping the contours of digital life, focusing on how these technologies are influenced by cultural contexts and how they, in turn, influence cultural and communicative practices. Covering topics such as AI Influencers, human-AI interaction, and storytelling, this book is an excellent resource for academicians, researchers, scholars, students, policymakers, technologists, industry professionals, librarians, and more.
