Artificial Intelligence and the Environmental Crisis: Can Technology Really Save the World?

商品描述

A radical and challenging book which argues that artificial intelligence needs a completely different set of foundations, based on ecological intelligence rather than human intelligence, if it is to deliver on the promise of a better world. This can usher in the greatest transformation in human history, an age of re-integration. Our very existence is dependent upon our context within the Earth System, and so, surely, artificial intelligence must also be grounded within this context, embracing emergence, interconnectedness and real-time feedback. We discover many positive outcomes across the societal, economic and environmental arenas and discuss how this transformation can be delivered.

 

Key Features:

  • Identifies a key weakness in current AI thinking, that threatens any hope of a better world.
  • Highlights the importance of realizing that systems theory is an essential foundation for any technology that hopes to positively transform our world.
  • Emphasizes the need for a radical new approach to AI, based on ecological systems.
  • Explains why ecosystem intelligence, not human intelligence, offers the best framework for AI.
  • Examines how this new approach will impact on the three arenas of society, environment and economics, ushering in a new age of re-integration.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

一本激進且具挑戰性的書籍，主張人工智慧需要一套完全不同的基礎，應以生態智慧而非人類智慧為基礎，才能實現更美好世界的承諾。這將引領人類歷史上最大的轉變，進入一個再整合的時代。我們的存在依賴於我們在地球系統中的背景，因此，人工智慧也必須根植於這一背景中，擁抱出現性、互聯性和即時反饋。我們發現社會、經濟和環境領域中許多積極的結果，並討論如何實現這一轉變。

主要特點：

- 確認當前人工智慧思維中的一個關鍵弱點，這威脅到任何對更美好世界的希望。
- 強調認識到系統理論是任何希望積極改變我們世界的技術的基本基礎的重要性。
- 強調基於生態系統的人工智慧需要一種激進的新方法。
- 解釋為什麼生態系統智慧，而非人類智慧，提供了人工智慧的最佳框架。
- 檢視這一新方法將如何影響社會、環境和經濟三個領域，開創再整合的新時代。
