Beskrivning

In The Risk Perception of Artificial Intelligence, Hugo Neri examines how society has come to understand artificial intelligence by studying how cultural productions, intellectuals, and the media have shaped society’s views, understandings, and fears of artificial intelligence. As an abstract term, artificial intelligence has been understood both as a discipline and a "robot's mind." In the twenty and twenty-first centuries, cultural representations in comics, television shows, and movies converged with public lectures about the risks of A.I. by prominent public figures such as Stephen Hawking and Elon Musk. Neri analyzes how this cultural and intellectual miscellany shapes the way we perceive artificial intelligence and whether this perception is universal or restricted to the Western world.

Recensioner i media

There is now considerable hype, and perhaps excessive hysteria, around Artificial Intelligence and its consequences. Neri's book is a scholarly appraisal of the actual risks faced by society with respect to Artificial Intelligence, a valuable and balanced companion to researchers curious about the effects of this technology, and an essential reading to anyone interested in its perception by society.
