Sinossi

Artificial Beings explores the fascinating relationship between artificial intelligence as depicted in science fiction and the realities of scientific research. It examines how AI narratives in literature, film, and television both reflect and influence our understanding of AI's potential, ethical considerations, and the very definition of what it means to be human. One intriguing insight is how fictional portrayals act as a crucial testing ground for exploring the possible consequences, both positive and negative, of increasingly sophisticated AI, shaping public perception and research priorities. The book also delves into the semantic challenges inherent in defining and understanding artificial intelligence, addressing the ambiguities that arise when creating machines in our image. The book uniquely treats fiction not as mere entertainment but as a valuable source of insight into the societal and ethical implications of AI and robotics. The approach emphasizes the interplay between cultural consciousness and scientific advancement. Starting with the historical roots of AI in both science and fiction, it traces milestones in AI research alongside recurring themes in fictional works. Subsequent chapters focus on the challenges of imbuing AI with human-like qualities and the ethical implications of advanced AI, drawing parallels between fictional scenarios and real-world concerns like algorithmic bias and autonomous weapons. This comprehensive overview equips readers with critical thinking skills to navigate the complex world of AI.

Path to Zero - 12 Climate...

Tucker Perkins

Tucker Perkins’s Path to Zero shows how we can reverse climate change and create a cleaner environment for future generations by putting aside our biases and working together for change. 
Climate catastrophe-inspired narratives like “Electrify Everything!” have a grip on people’s minds. The simplicity of the solution to the most complex endeavor ever faced by humans—the journey to a net zero future—is seductive, but it is fundamentally flawed. 
In Path to Zero: 12 Climate Conversations That Changed the World, author Tucker Perkins takes listeners on a series of future-casting journeys from the year 2050 back to the present day to show us how a better way—a wide path to net zero carbon emissions—was, and can be, achieved in an accelerated time frame. 
In this work, Perkins uncovers an array of practical, often obvious, measures the world can take to achieve a better, cleaner future inclusive of energy and power. Unlike other authors and voices of this age, Perkins shows us that change is possible, innovation is happening, and dogmatic devotion to singular solutions is one of the biggest impediments to progress.
