內容簡介

  當人工智慧不再是科幻電影中的假設,機器人逐漸出現於人類周遭,你該如何找到自己的立足之地?由世界上最了解AI的人現身說法!

  未來的機器人是否有意識?
  人類有辦法控制自己設計出來的智慧產物嗎?即便他們更聰明且更有力量?
  他們會不會反過來毀滅人類?

  AI的興起較其他任何技術都更有可能改變我們的未來,影響廣泛層面,自犯罪、戰爭、正義、工作、社會至我們對人的感覺都是。這個前所未有的挑戰令許多人困惑、擔憂或充滿期待,而這方面的探索先驅當推Max Tegmark莫屬。

  Max Tegmark是任教於麻省理工學院的宇宙學與物理學家,是生命未來研究所的共同創辦人,並受特斯拉創辦人伊隆•馬斯克(Elon Musk)資助研究人類未來可能遭遇來自AI的存在風險。Life 3.0是集合Tegmark研究心血的大成,書中以全方位的觀點,並不避諱從最有爭議的問題下筆──超級智慧與其意義,意識的存在和對宇宙生命的終極物理限制都直面在書中。

  Tegmark沿著時序並透過對不同產物的分析引出各種AI興起而出現的問題。我們如何通過自動化增加社會繁榮,而不使人們減少收入或目的?我們應該給今日的孩子們什麼樣的職業建議?我們如何使未來的AI系統更加強大,使他們能做到我們想要的,且不會發生故障或被駭客入侵?我們應該害怕進行自動致命武器的軍備競賽嗎?機器最終會超越我們在就業市場上替代人類嗎?AI會幫助生活前所未有的那樣蓬勃發展,並給我們超越自己能控制的力量嗎?

  本書前面的章節中,Tegmark描繪了從烏托邦到歐威爾主義的近景。書末,他則傳遞給讀者一幅遠景的視野:一個充滿超級智能產品的宇宙,那時的智人已成為遙遠的記憶。

  有些人可能會覺得這本書像一本科幻小說,有些人會著迷於意識本質的細節,無論從何種角度,Life 3.0結合理論研究、趨勢追蹤與前瞻預測,為讀者開鑿理解未來世界的快捷航道。(文/博客來編譯)

  All of us - not only scientists, industrialists and generals-should ask ourselves what can we do now to improve the chances of reaping the benefits of future AI and avoiding the risks. This is the most important conversation of our time, and Tegmark's thought-provoking book will help you join it' Stephen Hawking

  We stand at the beginning of a new era. What was once science fiction is fast becoming reality, as AI transforms war, crime, justice, jobs and society-and, even, our very sense of what it means to be human. More than any other technology, AI has the potential to revolutionize our collective future - and there's nobody better situated to explore that future than Max Tegmark, an MIT professor and co-founder of the Future of Life Institute, whose work has helped mainstream research on how to keep AI beneficial.

  In this deeply researched and vitally important new book, Tegmark takes us to the heart of thinking about AI and the human condition, bringing us face to face with the essential questions of our time. How can we grow our prosperity through automation, without leaving people lacking income or purpose? How can we ensure that future AI systems do what we want without crashing, malfunctioning or getting hacked? Should we fear an arms race in lethal autonomous weapons? Will AI help life flourish as never before, or will machines eventually outsmart us at all tasks, and even, perhaps, replace us altogether?

  Life 3.0 gives us the tools to join what may be the most important conversation of our time, guiding us through the most controversial issues around AI today -- from superintelligence to meaning, consciousness and the ultimate physical limits on life in the cosmos.

  What sort of future do you want?

Review

  I was riveted by this book. The transformational consequences of AI may soon be upon us¬-but will they be utopian or catastrophic? The jury is out, but this enlightening, lively and accessible book by a distinguished scientist helps us to assess the odds. (Martin Rees, Astronomer Royal, cosmology pioneer, author of Our Final Hour)

  Max seeks to facilitate a much wider conversation about what kind of future we, as a species, would want to create. Though the topics he covers - AI, cosmology, values, even the nature of conscious experience - can be fairly challenging, he presents them in an unintimidating manner that invites the reader to form her own opinions. (Nick Bostrom, Founder of Oxford's Future of Humanity Institute, author of Superintelligence)

  The unprecedented power unleashed by artificial intelligence means the next decade could be humanity's best - or worst. Max has written the most insightful and just plain fun exploration of AI's implications that I've ever read. If you haven't been exposed to Max's joyful mind yet, you're in for a huge treat. (Erik Brynjolfsson, Director of the MIT Initiative on the Digital Economy and co-author of ""The Second Machine Age”)

  Max's new book is a deeply thoughtful guide to the most important conversation of our time, about how to create a benevolent future civilization as we merge our biological thinking with an even greater intelligence of our own creation. (Ray Kurzweil, Inventor, Author and Futurist, author of The Singularity is Near and How to Create a Mind)

  This is a compelling guide to the challenges and choices in our quest for a great future of life, intelligence and consciousness - on Earth and beyond. (Elon Musk, CEO of SpaceX and Tesla Motors)

  Being an eminent physicist and the leader of the Future of Life Institute has given Max Tegmark a unique vantage point from which to give the reader an inside scoop on the most important issue of our time, in a way that is approachable without being dumbed down. (Jaan Tallinn, co-founder of Skype)

  This is an exhilarating book that will change the way we think about AI, intelligence, and the future of humanity. (Bart Selman, Professor of Computer Science, Cornell University)
