內容簡介
內容簡介 未來學家Amy Web探討科技巨頭和破碎的人工智慧將如何扭曲人類人類總是認為我們已掌控人工智慧的未來。然而，現實是人工智慧擁有我們日常一切的數據資料，而實際上卻未控制任何事物。舉例來說，當我們和Alexa交談，等同我們將這些數據貢獻給我們看不見的系統，並且沒有輸入任何東西，但基本上這已造成一個沒有監管或監督的行為。全球九大科技巨頭：亞馬遜、谷歌、臉書、騰訊、百度、阿里巴巴、微軟、IBM和蘋果，將是人工智慧的新神，正在快速改變我們的未來，透過這些數據收割獲得直接的經濟收益。未來學家Amy Webb將揭露基礎人工智能以無形的方式普遍各個角落，甚至從事系統工作的人們，他們的動機和技術本身，皆已破碎不堪。在我們有生之年，人工智慧將能透過設計開始表現出不可預期的行為，甚至違背人類邏輯的思考方式和行動。九大科技巨頭更可能無意中建立並啟用了大量的智能系統，這些系統不會分享我們對人類未來的動機、慾望和希望。作者認為如果我們不改變現況，人類可能將直接走向科技災難，但我們仍有時間可採取行動，甚至每個人都可發揮作用。We like to think that we are in control of the future of "artificial" intelligence. The reality, though, is that we--the everyday people whose data powers AI--aren't actually in control of anything. When, for example, we speak with Alexa, we contribute that data to a system we can't see and have no input into--one largely free from regulation or oversight. The big nine corporations--Amazon, Google, Facebook, Tencent, Baidu, Alibaba, Microsoft, IBM and Apple--are the new gods of AI and are short-changing our futures to reap immediate financial gain.In this book, Amy Webb reveals the pervasive, invisible ways in which the foundations of AI--the people working on the system, their motivations, the technology itself--are broken. Within our lifetimes, AI will, by design, begin to behave unpredictably, thinking and acting in ways which defy human logic. The big nine corporations may be inadvertently building and enabling vast arrays of intelligent systems that don't share our motivations, desires, or hopes for the future of humanity.Much more than a passionate, human-centered call-to-arms, this book delivers a strategy for changing course, and provides a path for liberating us from algorithmic decision-makers and powerful corporations.
