Human Compatible: AI and the Problem of Control
Autor Stuart Russellen Limba Engleză Paperback – 29 apr 2020
Humans dream of super-intelligent machines. But what happens if we actually succeed?
Creating superior intelligence would be the biggest event in human history. Unfortunately, according tothe world's pre-eminent AI expert, it could also be the last.
In this groundbreaking book,Stuart Russellsets out why he has come to consider his own discipline an existential threat to humanity, and how we can change course before it's too late. In brilliant and lucid prose, he explains how AI actually works and its enormous capacity to improve our lives - and why we must never lose control of machines more powerful than we are. Russell contends that we can avert the worst threats by reshaping the foundations of AI to guarantee that machines pursueourobjectives, nottheirs.Profound, urgent and visionary,Human Compatibleis the one book everyone needs to read to understand a future that is coming sooner than we think.

Recenzii
Surelythe
most
important
book
on
AI
this
year.
Abrilliantly clear and fascinatingexposition of the history of computing thus far, and how very difficult true AI will be to build.
Fascinating and significant.
Worth readingHuman Compatibleby Stuart Russell (he's great!) about future AI risks and solutions.
Athought-provoking and highly readableaccount of the past, present and future of AI . . . Russell deploys abracing intellectual rigour. . . but alaconic style and dry humourkeep his book accessible to the lay reader.
It's asking a lot of a book about the potential end of civilisation to be strewn with humour and wry asides, but this is what Russell manages . . . it's worth sticking with, for the sake of the species.
Anexcellent, nuancedhistory.
Russell is an assiduous and conscientious scholar ... [he] provides a wealth of information.This is one of those intellectual voyages where both the journey and the destination matter.
This isthe most important book I have read in quite some time. It lucidly explains how the coming age of artificial super-intelligence threatens human control. Crucially, it also introducesa novel solution and a reason for hope.
Of the many books published this year on artificial intelligence,this is probably the best. Stimulating and scary stuff.
A must-read: this intellectual tour-de-force by one of AI's true pioneers not only explains the risks of ever more powerful artificial intelligence in acaptivating and persuasiveway, but also proposes a concrete and promising solution.
Stuart Russell has long been the most sensible voice in computer science on the topic of AI risk. And he has now writtenthe book we've all been waiting for.Human Compatibleis abrilliant and utterly accessible guideto what will be either the best or worst technological development in human history.
Human Compatiblemade me a convert to Russell's concerns with our ability to control our upcoming creation -- super-intelligent machines. Unlike outside alarmists and futurists,Russell is a leading authority on AI. His new bookwill educate the public about AI more than any book I can think of, and is a delightful and uplifting read.
Stuart Russell, one of the most important AI scientists of the last 25 years, may have writtenthe most important book about AI so far, on one of the most important questions of the 21st century: How to build AI to be compatible with us. The book proposes a novel and intriguing solution for this problem, while offering many thought-provoking ideas and insights about AI along the way.An accessible and engagingmust-readfor the developers of AI and the users of AI - that is, for all of us.
The man set on stopping the machines taking over.
Inclear and compellinglanguage, Stuart Russell describes the huge potential benefits of Artificial Intelligence, as well as the hazards and ethical challenges. It's specially welcome thata respectedleading authorityshould offer this balanced appraisal, avoiding both hype and scaremongering.
A strong casefor planning for the day when machines can outsmart us.
Persuasively argued and lucidly imagined,Human Compatibleoffers anunflinching, incisivelook at what awaits us in the decades ahead. Stuart Russell's diagnosis of the risks and dangers of AI is convincing, and his prescription for action is compelling.No researcher has argued more persuasively about the risks of AI, nor has shown more clearly a pathway forward.Anyone who takes the future seriously should pay attention.
Can we coexist happily with the intelligent machines that humans will create? "Yes," answersHuman Compatible, "but first..." Throughabrilliant reimagining of the foundations of artificial intelligence, Russell takes you on a journey from the very beginning, explaining the questions raised by an AI-driven society and beautifully making the case for how to ensure machines remain beneficial to humans.A totallyreadable and crucially important guide to the future from one of theworld's leading experts.
The same mix ofde-mystifying authority and practical advicethat Dr. Benjamin Spock once brought to the care and raising of children, Dr. Stuart Russell now brings to the care, raising, and yes, disciplining of machines.He has written the book that most -- but perhaps not all -- machines would like you to read.
Thisbeautifully writtenbook addresses a fundamental challenge for humanity: increasingly intelligent machines that do what we ask but not what we really intend.Essential reading if you care about ourfuture.
A book that charts humanity's quest to understand intelligence, pinpoints why it became unsafe, and showshow to course-correct if we want to survive as a species. Stuart Russell, author of the leading AI textbook, can do all that withthe wealth of knowledge of a prominentAI researcher and the persuasive clarity and wit of a brilliant educator.
