商品描述

Award-winning journalist David Ewing Duncan considers 24 visions of possible human-robot futures--Incredible scenarios from Teddy Bots to Warrior Bots, and Politician Bots to Sex Bots--Grounded in real technologies and possibilities and inspired by our imagination.

What robot and AI systems are being built and imagined right now? What do they say about us, their creators? Will they usher in a fantastic new future, or destroy us? What do some of our greatest thinkers, from physicist Brian Greene and futurist Kevin Kelly to inventor Dean Kamen, geneticist George Church, and filmmaker Tiffany Shlain, anticipate about our human-robot future? For even as robots and A.I. intrigue us and make us anxious about the future, our fascination with robots has always been about more than the potential of the technology-it's also about what robots tell us about being human.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

獲獎記者大衛·尤因·鄧肯(David Ewing Duncan)考慮了24種可能的人類與機器人未來的願景——從泰迪機器人(Teddy Bots)到戰士機器人(Warrior Bots),再到政治家機器人(Politician Bots)和性機器人(Sex Bots)——這些情景都基於現實技術和可能性,並受到我們想像力的啟發。

目前正在建造和想像哪些機器人和人工智慧系統?這些系統對我們這些創造者有什麼啟示?它們會帶來一個奇妙的新未來,還是會毀滅我們?一些偉大的思想家,包括物理學家布萊恩·格林(Brian Greene)、未來學家凱文·凱利(Kevin Kelly)、發明家迪恩·卡門(Dean Kamen)、基因學家喬治·丘奇(George Church)和電影製作人蒂芬妮·施萊恩(Tiffany Shlain),對我們的人類與機器人未來有什麼預期?即使機器人和人工智慧讓我們感到興奮和焦慮,我們對機器人的著迷始終不僅僅是技術潛力的問題——它還關乎機器人告訴我們的有關人性的故事。
