Vospitanie mashin: Novaya istoriya razuma

What are the social and economic consequences of the development of machine intelligence and how will our lives change in the coming decades? In answering these questions, Sergey Shumsky, a renowned Russian expert in the field of artificial intelligence, takes a historical approach, tracing the change in technological eras right up to the present day. The emergence of machine intelligence marks the beginning of the transition to a new way of life, a new digital economy. But this revolution, like any other, is fraught with many risks, from the loss of social stability in individual countries and in the international arena to the existential challenges associated with the loss of control over one‘s own destiny by individuals and humanity as a whole. It is therefore very important that the artificial mind come as close as possible to the human mind in terms of social instincts and humanistic values, and hence, the author insists, a reliable practical program for the formation of a human-like artificial psyche and the development of a new science of machine education is needed.
