Description
Artificial intelligence is increasingly shaping our world, with machines making decisions and suggestions that impact our lives. However, beneath its practical applications lies a complex web of power dynamics, data surveillance, and biases.
This book offers a critical perspective on artificial intelligence, drawing on social theory to examine the social consequences of AI. It explores the ideologies driving AI, the myths surrounding it, and the intricate relationship between AI and power. By approaching AI through the lens of critical social theory, Simon Lindgren provides a nuanced understanding of how AI intersects with politics.
For scholars and students in various disciplines, this book offers a valuable framework for critiquing AI and its impact on society. It is an essential read for anyone seeking to understand the complexities of artificial intelligence and its role in shaping our world.
