Gut
Buch, das gelesen wurde, sich aber in einem guten Zustand befindet. Der Einband weist nur sehr geringfügige Beschädigungen auf, wie z.B. kleinere Schrammen, er hat aber weder Löcher, noch ist er eingerissen. Bei gebundenen Büchern ist der Schutzumschlag möglicherweise nicht mehr vorhanden. Die Bindung weist geringfügige Gebrauchsspuren auf. Die Mehrzahl der Seiten ist unbeschädigt, das heißt, es gibt kaum Knitter oder Einrisse, es wurden nur in geringem Maße Bleistiftunterstreichungen im Text vorgenommen, es gibt keine Textmarkierungen und die Randbereiche sind nicht beschrieben. Alle Seiten sind vollständig vorhanden. Genauere Einzelheiten sowie eine Beschreibung eventueller Mängel entnehmen Sie bitte dem Angebot des Verkäufers.

'eoeFun, clear, engaging, Future Minds introduces readers to cutting-edge work in issues of the mind, artificial intelligence, free will, and the possibility of enhancing ourselves with technology. Connecting research in robotics and AI with traditional discussions of personal identity and consciousness, Schneider treats topics fairly and plausibly and contributes important insights.'e'e"Michael Huemer, University of Colorado, Boulder, "[Schneider] asks one of the most pertinent questions I've read all year: What is a person? Think on that." ---Deutsche Welle, Zulfikar Abbany, "Accessible and intriguing. . . . A significant contribution to some of the often-overlooked ethical issues surrounding the continued development of artificial intelligence." ---Ken Daley, The Philosopher's Magazine, "This is a fun, provocative, thoughtful and interesting book to read. . . .As we rush, almost unthinkingly into an AI enhanced world this is a book that is well worth reading." ---Simon Cocking, Irish Tech News, "This book is a delight to read. Deeply satisfying: a double prolonged plea for humility as we explore questions [of AI and the nature of consciousness]. A stimulating and accessible blend of neuroethical speculation and provocation, all deriving from a deeply felt moral mission. In short, highly recommend." ---John Banja, AJOB Neuroscience, "Schneider is a sure-footed and witty guide to slippery ethical terrain. Her exposition of the consciousness problem is laced with helpful examples. It pries clarity from the essential opacity of its central concepts, most important consciousness itself. And it is refreshingly candid." ---Washington Post,, Schneider is a sure-footed and witty guide to slippery ethical terrain. Her exposition of the consciousness problem is laced with helpful examples. It pries clarity from the essential opacity of its central concepts, most important consciousness itself. And it is refreshingly candid., "Susan Schneider's book takes a step back from . . . sensationalist prophecies and instead offers a well-reasoned and thoughtful discussion about the need for AI researchers and policymakers to place more emphasis on the question of consciousness." ---Martin De Saulles, Times Higher Education, "Fun, clear, engaging, Future Minds introduces readers to cutting-edge work in issues of the mind, artificial intelligence, free will, and the possibility of enhancing ourselves with technology.

As we rush, almost unthinkingly into an AI enhanced world this is a book that is well worth reading." ---Simon Cocking, Irish Tech News, "Packed with material that enlightens new ways of thinking about a hot topic. . . . a philosophical tour with real-world implications and it'll appeal most to readers who enjoy playing out scenarios. . . . One of the benefits of learning about AI is better understanding the human mind, and this book--while challenging--offers an accessible, enjoyable intro for both." ---David DiSalvo, Forbes, "This is a brilliantly incisive commentary on the central philosophical issues arising out of AI developments." ---David Lorimer, Paradigm Explorer, "[A] well-reasoned and thoughtful discussion about the need for AI researchers and policymakers to place more emphasis on the question of consciousness." ---Martin De Saulles, Times Higher Education, "Fun, clear, engaging, Artificial You introduces readers to cutting-edge work in issues of the mind, artificial intelligence, free will, and the possibility of enhancing ourselves with technology.

Synopsis
Hailed by the Washington Post as "a sure-footed and witty guide to slippery ethical terrain," a philosophical exploration of AI and the future of the mind that Astronomer Royal Martin Rees calls "profound and entertaining"Humans may not be Earth's most intelligent beings for much longer: the world champions of chess, Go, and Jeopardy! are now all AIs. Given the rapid pace of progress in AI, many predict that it could advance to human-level intelligence within the next several decades. From there, it could quickly outpace human intelligence. What do these developments mean for the future of the mind?In Artificial You, Susan Schneider says that it is inevitable that AI will take intelligence in new directions, but urges that it is up to us to carve out a sensible path forward. As AI technology turns inward, reshaping the brain, as well as outward, potentially creating machine minds, it is crucial to beware. Homo sapiens, as mind designers, will be playing with "tools" they do not understand how to use: the self, the mind, and consciousness. Schneider argues that an insufficient grasp of the nature of these entities could undermine the use of AI and brain enhancement technology, bringing about the demise or suffering of conscious beings. To flourish, we must grasp the philosophical issues lying beneath the algorithms.At the heart of her exploration is a sober-minded discussion of what AI can truly achieve: Can robots really be conscious? Can we merge with AI, as tech leaders like Elon Musk and Ray Kurzweil suggest? Is the mind just a program? Examining these thorny issues, Schneider proposes ways we can test for machine consciousness, questions whether consciousness is an unavoidable byproduct of sophisticated intelligence, and considers the overall dangers of creating machine minds., A sober-minded philosophical exploration of what AI can and cannot achieve Humans may not be Earth's most intelligent beings for much longer: the world champions of chess, Go, and Jeopardy are now all AIs.
