Description

Our Final Invention: Artificial Intelligence and the End of the Human Era

James Barrat's landmark work explores the ethics, history and future perils of the pursuit of advanced AI. First published ten years ago, this book predicted much of the artificial 'intelligence explosion' that is now transforming our culture. With an urgent new preface, Barrat examines the implications of humanlike machines and the potential consequences of creating beings with intelligence that dwarfs our own.

As scientists strive to achieve human-level intelligence, Barrat delves into the history and ethics of AI development, raising important questions about our coexistence with intelligent beings that may surpass our own capabilities.
