Why the world needs less AI and better programming languages.
Decades ago, we believed that robots and computers would take over all the boring jobs and drudgery, leaving humans to a life of leisure. This hasn't happened. Instead, humans are still doing boring jobs, and even worse, AI researchers have built technology that is creative, self-aware, and emotional--doing the tasks humans were supposed to enjoy. How did we get here? In Moral Codes, Alan Blackwell argues that there is a fundamental flaw in the research agenda of AI. What humanity needs, Blackwell argues, is better ways to tell computers what we want them to do, with new and better programming languages: More Open Representations, Access to Learning, and Control Over Digital Expression, in other words, MORAL CODE.
Blackwell draws on his deep experiences as a programming language designer--which he has been doing since 1983--to unpack fundamental principles of interaction design and explain their technical relationship to ideas of creativity and fairness. Taking aim at software that constrains our conversations with strict word counts or infantilizes human interaction with likes and emojis, Blackwell shows how to design software that is better--not more efficient or more profitable, but better for society and better for all people. Covering recent research and the latest smart tools, Blackwell offers rich design principles for a better kind of software--and a better kind of world.

為什麼世界需要更少的 AI 和更好的程式語言。
幾十年前，我們相信機器人和電腦會接管所有無聊的工作和繁瑣的事務，讓人類過上悠閒的生活。然而，這並沒有發生。相反，人類仍然在從事無聊的工作，更糟的是，AI 研究者已經開發出具有創造力、自我意識和情感的技術，執行本應由人類享受的任務。我們是怎麼走到這一步的？在《道德代碼》中，艾倫·布萊克威爾主張 AI 的研究議程存在根本性缺陷。布萊克威爾認為，人類需要的是更好的方式來告訴電腦我們希望它們做什麼，這需要新的、更好的程式語言：更多的開放表達、學習的機會，以及對數位表達的控制，換句話說，就是道德代碼。
布萊克威爾利用他自 1983 年以來作為程式語言設計師的深厚經驗，來解析互動設計的基本原則，並解釋這些原則與創造力和公平性概念之間的技術關係。針對那些以嚴格字數限制我們對話或用讚和表情符號使人類互動幼稚化的軟體，布萊克威爾展示了如何設計出更好的軟體——不是更有效率或更有利可圖，而是對社會和所有人都更好的軟體。涵蓋最新的研究和智能工具，布萊克威爾提供了更好軟體的豐富設計原則——以及一個更美好的世界。
