The Sentient Robot: The Last Two Hurdles in the Race to Build Artificial Superintelligence - Softcover
Inhaltsangabe
The heart of the book is the idea of building artificial superintelligence that will see the world through our eyes, an AI that possesses consciousness. Rupert Robson proposes the mirrored homunculus theory of consciousness. This holds that consciousness evolved like any other human feature. It came to serve the purpose of promoting individual, prosocial decision-making and flexible thinking. The mirrored homunculus theory belongs to the illusionist family of theories of consciousness. The mirrored homunculus takes the form of an extensive neuronal network. The rest of the brain mistakenly perceives this network as an agent, which is an illusion. This illusion is consciousness.
The reader is introduced to Felicity, an artificial superintelligent being. Felicity possesses the full repertoire of human characteristics, albeit in digital form. These include emotions, empathy and consciousness. Crucially, she also possesses human values. With that range of capabilities, Felicity is in an extraordinarily strong position to consider and formulate appropriate answers to humankind's intractable problems. She is a sentient robot who sees the world just as we do.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor
Rupert Robson studied philosophy of mind at Oxford as part of his degree in philosophy, politics and economics. He left banking in 2006 in order to write a book on the ways in which humankind might shape the world and in turn be shaped in the coming decades. The emerging possibility of conscious AI led to the conception and writing of The Sentient Robot.

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. Artificial intelligence is on the point of taking humankind into a new age. The turning point will come when AI has advanced so far that it matches human intelligence in every way. Human intelligence, whilst slower in some respects, is still more flexible than AI. But, once AI has caught up, it will take no time at all before going on to surpass humans by a huge distance. That scary prospect is termed artificial superintelligence (ASI).Rupert Robson argues that we are now just two conceptual hurdles away from developing ASI. The first of the two hurdles is to embed consciousness in AI, thereby giving us the sentient robot. This will enable ASI to see the world through our eyes. The second of the two hurdles is about the developmental step needed in AI design so as to achieve human-level flexibility in thought.A new world is about to open up before us. We need to understand it and prepare for it. Rupert Robson argues that we are now just two conceptual hurdles away from developing artificial superintelligence. The first of the two hurdles is to embed consciousness in AI, thereby giving us the sentient robot. The second is about the developmental step needed in AI design so as to achieve human-level flexibility in thought.
