Artificial Intelligence and Its Discontents: Critiques from the Social Sciences and Humanities: Social and Cultural Studies of Robots and AI

Editat de Ariane Hanemaayer
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 3 feb 2023
On what basis can we challenge Artificial Intelligence (AI) - its infusion, investment, 
and implementation across the globe? This book answers this question by 
drawing on a range of critical approaches from the social sciences and humanities, 
including posthumanism, ethics and human values, surveillance studies, Black 
feminism, and other strategies for social and political resistance. The authors 
analyse timely topics, including bias and language processing, responsibility 
and machine learning, COVID-19 and AI in health technologies, bio-AI and 
nanotechnology, digital ethics, AI and the gig economy, representations of AI in 
literature and culture, and many more. This book is for those who are currently 
working in the field of AI critique and disruption as well as in AI development and 
programming. It is also for those who want to learn more about how to doubt, 
question, challenge, reject, reform and otherwise reprise AI as it been practiced 
and promoted.

Recenzii

“The book offers a number of useful critiques of AI as it interacts with increasing numbers of Internet users. Readers should take the Marxist perspectives with a grain of salt.” (G. R. Mayforth, Computing Reviews, October 19, 2022)

“All of the chapters are well written and the editorial process was clearly very good. … I found four essays particularly noteworthy … . If you are limited on time, these core essays are must-reads. I found this book interesting because it disclosed to me what others outside the computational science community see.” (Anthony J. Duben, Computing Reviews, July 20, 2022)
