Recenzii
Original, informative and easy to read. A good guide for understanding the future and facing it
Highly recommended.
There are already numerous books on artificial intelligence and its social impact, but Gissel Velarde's book has two characteristics that make it valuable and different. The first is that it is based on some 300 references in its bibliography, which gives it a very remarkable scientific character. The second is that AI is presented from the point of view of a Bolivian woman, who has lived in several European countries, and with a multidisciplinary professional profile.
A very natural and human vision of this new artificial era.
From the very beginning, the book invites us to think, to reflect, to question; and it does it from the freedom that we have to positioning ourselves in some place of the world of knowledge and reasoning. Is it fiction? Is it reality?...I invite you to read this text without fear or prejudice, enjoy it from beginning to end not only to include it in the reading list of the year, but to reflect, decide and act.
Dr. Velarde presents in this book a realistic perspective of the role technology, in particular artificial intelligence (AI), is playing and will play in our lives both at a personal level and at the society level. Instead of focusing only on the potential dilemmas of general artificial intelligence, she discusses important topics including the need for national and international strategies for AI development, as well as the consequences of developing biased AI models in a world with large inequalities (gender, racial, class, etc.).
The book is well written and researched, and examines AI from an international perspective.
Artificial Era adds to the body of scholarship on how AI, like other technologies, impacts societies. Velarde's book is easily digestible and allows the reader to see the multitude of viewpoints on AI adoption, diversity in technology, and the need to rethink education in the AI world...the book is well written and researched.
