商品描述
Is it possible to design robots and other machines that can reproduce and evolve? And, if so, what are the implications: for the machines, for ourselves, for our environment, and for the future of life on Earth and elsewhere?
In this book the authors provide a chronological survey and comprehensive archive of the early history of thought about machine self-reproduction and evolution. They discuss contributions from philosophy, science fiction, science and engineering, and uncover many examples that have never been discussed in the Artificial Intelligence and Artificial Life literature before now. In the final chapter they provide a synthesis of the concepts discussed, offer their views on the field's future directions, and call for a broad community discussion about the significant implications of intelligent evolving machines.
The book will be of interest to general readers, and a valuable resource for researchers, practitioners, and historians engaged with ideas in artificial intelligence, artificial life, robotics, and evolutionary computing.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
是否有可能設計出能夠自我繁殖和進化的機器人及其他機器?如果可以,這對於這些機器、我們自己、我們的環境,以及地球和其他地方生命的未來有什麼影響?
在這本書中,作者提供了一個關於機器自我繁殖和進化早期思想的時間順序調查和全面檔案。他們討論了來自哲學、科幻小說、科學和工程的貢獻,並揭示了許多在人工智慧和人工生命文獻中從未討論過的例子。在最後一章中,他們對所討論的概念進行了綜合,提供了對該領域未來方向的看法,並呼籲廣泛的社群討論有關智能進化機器的重要影響。
這本書將吸引一般讀者,並成為從事人工智慧、人工生命、機器人技術和進化計算思想的研究者、實踐者和歷史學家的寶貴資源。
作者簡介
Tim Taylor is a scientist, author, and coder, based in Edinburgh, Scotland. He pursues research and development in artificial life, agent-based modelling and artificial intelligence, and also has a deep interest in the history of these fields. He has held research positions in various leading universities in the UK and Australia, including Edinburgh, York and Goldsmiths. He currently works part-time (and remotely) as a Senior Research Fellow in the Department of Data Science and AI at Monash University, while also pursuing his own research and writing interests as an independent researcher. He is an associate examiner for the University of London, and an elected board member of the International Society for Artificial Life.
Alan Dorin is an Associate Professor at Monash University in Australia where he leads the Computational and Collective Intelligence group within the Department of Data Science and AI. His research interests include artificial life, ecological modelling, insect-plant interaction and simulation, biologically-inspired electronic media art, generative art, and the history of technology. He promotes an understanding of the relationships between technology, society and the natural environment by encouraging interdisciplinary curiosity.
